He probably created the case to make some publicity for himself. But when you type the URLs of the results included in his screenshot, you get to pages (like http://dvlprs.com/link/2483939) that LINK TO THE FORGERED query, with the exact cyrillic characters shown here. This is exactly why only those pages they were found, if you try now you'll find also this page.<br />@Jim, Matt: Oracle is a valid English word.
