Sounds like someone found a crack in the bbPress wall.
Try making a ticket on the trac. Altough bbPress stand alone isn’t supported that much anymore, but I guess this asks for a critical update.

Same problem here, I’m seeing spammy tag but any post there

Same problem on my site, but I looked a little.
These spammy tags are from spams automatically detected as spam in Akismet, written by a user marked as bozo. (That’s the good part of it.) Nothing is visible from this user except for the tags.
As a quick and dirty workaround I deleted the tags and the referred tag-id in the MySQL tables term_relationships and terms. But it is a bug, this kind of tags should not appear. Generally tags from bozos should not be visible (its a join on usermeta on ID = usermeta.user_id where meta_key = 'is_bozo' and meta_value = 1
).
But don’t expect a quick fix, its bbpress here. Even more important things need a lot of time.
