Maybe a partial solution here would be to offer some kind of "domain locking" option?
Allow sites that are heavy targets of this kind of scam - like ticketmaster - to add a "AdSense: locked" line to their robots.txt (or similar) - if that line is present then advertisers have to go through an additional domain verification step in order to place an ad.

I like this idea. I would love to hear from Google why they would not do this. Anyone know why Google / Facebook et al would not want to do this?

Money. And no one died because of this behaviour. So why change a running cash-machine...
