| unfortunately, google cannot catch every instance spammy black hat tactics, so the truth of the matter is that spammy black hat and crap hat tactics still work, and work very well....until you get caught.so the risk of using effective black hat tactics is that if you get caught and google slaps you, then all your black hat / hard work is wasted. but your chances of getting caught are slim. some may disagree.

| Like someone actually checks them :) I'm sure Google gets a few million of those finger pointing reports per day, who is gonna check them and adjust the rankings? Waste of time

| I have a competitor with several thousands crap pages designed only for spamming, and another with 10 duplicated sites with the very same content. Since last year I have already made several reports without results.Webmasters can do genuine mistakes. So I understand why some spam get no results. But some people clearly try to cheat with stupid tricks. You'll tell me "send a report", but what for ? If you don't do anything it's not worth the time.

| I submit spam report about a "competitor" who get 50-80.000 from google/day and use spam, hidden text in any pages, clonate his site in other 4-5 domain and then link from his site the "clone" and so on... and this is only the stuff visible from "outside" i really can't imagine what other things him do...Google penalize some of his key (lost 1-2 position, anyway is still in first page for all keyword)... is more of 1,5 year that domain is in serp and receive more traffic
