Thanks Pascal!

I guess I must have forgotten to mention in the report that I already manually removed the remaining SEO spam tags for their changesets, so it seems I ended up wasting both of our times here without anything to show for it. Oh well--lesson learned for the future.

Thanks; unfortunately, this is not the first time I've seen online gambling promoted on OSM, especially in East and Southeast Asia. The methods may be modern, but the lure of a quick buck (or rupiah, in this case) is timeless.

The sketchy online gambling operation is likely paying some low-budget SEO outfit to spam them on different websites--in just the past couple weeks around ~400+ SEO accounts with ~1000+ total changesets have been blocked on OSM (a backlog which I'm working through remediating at a rate of 20-40 accounts/50-100 changesets a day), and that's only the fraction of the total that actually gets detected. And the scale of these operations can be pretty huge--I've spotted others myself that turned out to be a ring of hundreds of accounts with thousands of changesets over the course of a few months, all by the same group.

Thanks for doing your part and keeping an eye on changesets in your area, and happy mapping!

Yup, as you surmised the location of the node was already incorrect and then they inexplicably changed the details for this Fort Collins, CO location to those of the Amarillo, TX location. I reverted this, moved the point to the correct location per the (original) address and fixed other tags in changeset/183280371, and merged the relevant tags with the actual intended Amarillo Texas POI in changeset/183280328

Thanks for actually responding to the bot and trying to fix this yourself. I removed the SEO spam image=* and description=* tags as well as redundant healthcare:speciality=* tagging (`psychotherapist` and `counselling` are primary `healthcare=*` tags that you are already using here, not listed specialties) in changeset/183278382
