Spam alert: Konstantine

I received a 'comment' today on my blog that was in fact an effort to boost someone else's website.
The message is below. In his original post, this text "website design company new york" was a link to his website. 

In sum,
Konstantine [last name removed] may be a spammer.
And same goes for the company that he's apparently involved in.
