The artist naming convention also followed a somewhat similar pattern, with names ranging from the normal-sounding "Calvin Mann" to head-scratchers like "Calorie Event," "Calms Scorching," and "Calypso Xored."

How about "Butthole Surfers", "Toad the Wet Sprocket" and "Panic! At the Disco". Are those "head-scratchers"?

Is the streamer going to refund the ad money to the advertisers?

This is the key question. If there are bots listening to fake music there are bots listening to real music which means Spotify is getting paid by advertisers to run their ads to fake accounts with no real people there. It sounds like Spotify is committing fraud. They are the ones collecting a check for nothing. It sounds like they have absolutely no idea how many real customers they actually have, less the ones paying the monthly fee.
