Unfortunately Apple has no time to deal with this
3 - 4 reviews.. ok. How about 27 reviews? That is how many Samir has faked for iOthello. If you look across all his apps, he has in my estimation faked as many as 200 reviews, plus several more ratings (just stars without review text). This is clear and blatant shilling, which is fraud.

Apple NEEDS to deal with this or the store will become a joke.
