In my case, it looks like they got the info from whois.

I have a parked domain, so it would not be visible to spiders. The email address they spammed about it was the owner in whois, not the address listed on the site.

AFAIR whois servers should have bulk query protections against large scale harvesting. Obviously "John Kennedy" knows one that doesn't.
