I don't really think it is unethical or immoral either; and it is a fascinating case study. There might be more of an issue if you did SEO for them I guess - the "appearance of a conflict of interest" or whatever. I was just raising it as a point of discussion. Thanks for the clarification.

I am curious about these things and I felt the post would have lacked some credibility if I'd just said "Oh hey, I think it's broken" and not provided some examples and evidence. @Leonard Holmes:

In this case, the spamdexter not only duplicated content and ranked highly, but he also paid for Google AdWords using my client's trademarked name. The client's attorney had to alert Google to the problem. I thought advertising went through some kind of review process, too. I ran into a similar situation with a client’s Web site.

I imagine that it's just a matter of time before Google penalizes them. I've heard of cases where stuff like this works for several months, then suddenly gets you in more trouble than if you hadn't tried it. The other question that comes to mind is whether outing a site like this to Google in order to help your client in the same industry is a good thing?

Thanks for the great find, that list will actually save me some time with some research I am working on.
