Passing page rank with frames - Is this within Google Guidelines?

[valkyrk]

It appears this site is gaming Google for better rankings. I haven't seen a site do it this before way before.  Can you tell me what enables this to get such good rankings, and whether what they are doing is legitimate?

The site is http://gorillamikes.com/

Earlier this year this site didn't show up in the rankings for terms like "Cincinnati tree removal" and"tree trimming Cincinnati" etc. The last few months they have been ranking #1 or #2 for these terms.

The site has a huge disparity in MozRank (8, very low) vs. Page Rank (6, high).

The only links to this page come from the BBB.  However, when you look at the source code you find 100% of what is displayed on the site comes from a page on another site via a frame.  The content is here: http://s87121255.onlinehome.us/hosting/gorillamikes/

When I go to onlinehome.us I'm redirected to http://www.1and1.com/.

I'm only speculating, but my guess is onlinehome.us has a high page rank that it is passing to http://gorillamikes.com/, enabling Gorilla Mikes to achieve PR of 6.  Does this make sense?

In addition, the content is over optimized for the above terms (they use "Cincinnati (Cincinnat, OH)" in the first three H2 tags on the page.  And all of the top menu links result in 404 errors.

Are the tactics this site is using legitimate?  It appears that everything they're doing is designed to improve search results, and not in ways that are helpful to users.  What do you think?

The links you posted are 404'ing, the entire gorillamikes.com site is 404'ing and there are only 4 pages currently indexed which will soon go away if it continues to 404.

I see no competition threat at the moment
