You need to expose that kind of stuff. By hiding them behind @agentname.com you just help them.

In this case wouldn't naming the agent also increase the likelihood that they're targeted? The clients have already been primed to follow the phishing link, so it'd just be a matter of getting a target list. Most agents I'm aware of stick to a local region/market, so targeted ad buys ("people in X county buying homes")/email lists/etc could be worth it for a motivated phisher.
