How has my competitor got 19 million inbound links on bing?!

Hi all,
I just did a quick check on the inbound links on one of my competitors sites in the fancy dress field. Here are the stats I got back:

Number of inbound links to my site:
Alexa - 10
Bing.co.uk - 310
Google.co.uk - 14
Yahoo.co.uk - 482

To my competitors site (joke.co.uk):
Alexa - 285
Bing.co.uk - 19,000,000
Google.co.uk - 15
Yahoo.co.uk - 993

How is that possible? Its seems like a crazy value.

Perhaps content somewhere with a link to his site is displaying in a recursive loop. The other search engines probably detected this and maybe bing didn't?

Just an idea. Could also just be a blip with bings reporting.

Hope so, otherwise I have one hell of a job on my hands to catch up!

I will keep looking into it and report back with anything that might explain how its been achieved.

Totally agree, something not quite right.
