Well no one can force him to reply, so there's not much you can do if someone does that.

If it's an ongoing pattern though it would be trolling, and whoever did such things would get a reputation for it at the very least.

Yup, and unintentional trolling can be forgiven sometimes, but eventually no one is going to believe it if it keeps being claimed (in general terms, not a specific commentary on this thread).
