Would you trust this bike seller when he doesn't keep his advertisement out of Y!A?
He thinks that Y!A is his personal advertising space. He likes to spam Y!A with his answers always pointing to his web site. If every commercial outfit in the world would do like he does using Y!A for his personal purposes, the place will be as dead as a dodo. He is wasting my time as I am tired of reading his pseudo answers loaded with commercials to the same web site. He has about 200 answers reffering to his site.
He posts his answers after most of us frequent users have done it so as to pass undetected. I wonder what the BBB will think about his advertisement practizes. It certainly looks unethical to me. Definetly not fair practize when unsuspecting buyers will think he is just someone giving free advise.

Here's an idea: everyone who is fed up with his answers go to his answers and give them all a thumbs down

Hmm...I wonder why? - said the old man sarcastically. Yes, myself & several others have reported him for constantly linking that pseudo website selling bicycle shaped objects. It may even be a total rip-off. Who knows?
Evidently the administrators of Yahoo Answers move more slowly & are more blind to obvious scam artists than the U.S. Federal Government.

Since there is no "direct line" that I know of to appeal to the moderators directly I think the only thing to do is continue to report them (there are more than one) each time you see them.
