You will find that it will be ordered through some kiddy host offering
gig ports and then paid for with a bent credit card will use if for a
week till it gets yanked and by which time they are long gone.
Also if they have spoofed the IP then unlieky anyone can submit an
abuse report about it to the right people .

However that doesn't mean you can use it for attacks. You can try but
it will be a rather short lived fun. Your server will be shut down
with the first abuse report or even before that.
It's easier to write a small Windows program and upload it somewhere,
you wouldn't believe the number of idiots who download and execute
.exe files that do funny things... put it on 4chan with an unrelated
image next to it and you have a botnet with a million clients.
Bandwidth: unlimited
Price: free
That's unfortunately pretty much how it works...
