You are right. But I think using a catch all with a separate username for each service/business is becoming an increasingly common practice so I would imagine it’s only a matter of time before spammers catch on and begin exploiting this.

I use service name + 4 random alphanumeric characters. Seems to strike a reasonable balance between just using the service name vs. completely random characters.
