[EDIT: DMSmillie beat me to it.]
It looks like this guys books are still available on Amazon but they don't have the 5 star reviews that he claims -- only a few reviews and all negative. The guy seems like the equivilant of an Amazon Troll.
However, I read about another author who recommended giving away books to top reviewers in exchange for honest reviews. He claimed this was a huge boost to his sales, and I have to say that a book with a relatively large number of 5 star reviews does get my attention. I'm actually surprised that some kind of business that provides X number of Amazon reviews hasn't been started.
