I see a lot of the spammers getting smarter. They post a few ratings(no text so not a “review”), and throw in some random details on their profile.
This one doesn’t seem right because he chose to use Taiwanese Assam from Butiki, which has been closed down for a few years now. It’s possible, but unlikely he managed to get his hands on some… though there really is no way to prove that either way. Is there anything we can do? He’s got a for profit website listed so clearly wants to make money…

I’ve removed him. While it is annoying, I’m not too worried about those. We have our out bound links set up so that we don’t pass through any SEO credibility, so the only benefit he would get would be someone clicking that random link to his site when it’s clearly not relevant.
