It is a shame that the sham has run its course. So many years SEO has been able to be lazy, now they no longer have the option. Cheating, lying, stealing all come back to you when you least expect it. If you become the best by doing your worst the fall will be fast and hard when they find out.
Any real SEO will know the one simple thing, its just math. Figure out the math and you do it right. try to 'buy your election' to top serps and your gonna fall. You may become the President or your search for a bit though, so they do it.
The web has changed we must all learn and adapt or shut up and get new jobs.

You're right Mich, sadly. The Web has changed a lot.
Great post! Couldn't agree more. Nice one, Patricia.
SEO is something which anybody can do but not all of them do. I think it needs very persistent and regular work and that is the most difficult part of it. I have almost 5 customers and it is very difficult to satisfy them. They need a lot of links regardless of quality and that is not difficult to provide by mini site network. So should we do that? I think we should drop such customers which keep on insisting such stuff.
I think if you're doing nothing wrong, then don't worry about it. If you're doing something gray-hat/black-hat, then maybe you should look into more legitimate ways of promoting your site(s).
