Google Webmaster Tools Reporting False Links
-
I was looking at Google Webmaster Tools and the amount of links that are reported in there are inaccurate.
They reported over 50,000 links that created a huge spike in their link graph and I checked some of the links and they don't even have the link on their site.
Can anyone help with this?

Did you check the source code of the pages for your link?
It may have been some kind of aggregated spam.
Do any other tools report those links?

The 50k in links is coming from one link source where our client bought a spot on buyersguide.aluminum.org.
I checked the pages of some of the reported links and dont see our client's link on the page.
This is an example link:http://buyersguide.aluminum.org/company.php?id=1120185&company=United Aluminum Corp.
When I check OSE, they link isnt listed there either.
