Could be Folliculitis. I'm not sure though. I live in El Paso, TX; and most of the population is hispanic, and I've noticed on some of my medium to darker friends and family, they have dark spots on their backs and shoulders.
I've been trying to find out what it is all day, that's how i stumbled upon your question. My boyfriend has them, and is very self conscious about it. My best friend also has them, so she always wears shirts that cover her shoulders (no tank tops). Another guy friend of mine has them too.
The spots are not raised and sometimes they peel a little; and sometimes, my boyfriend's start to scab. It's weird. I've been with him for 5 years (living together for 4 years) and have never caught them, so i don't think they're contagious.
The best thing I've come up with so far is Folliculitis, but I'm still looking. I'll post something else if i find more info. This website showed some folliculitis that looks as extreme as my boyfriend's case. http://georgiahealthinfo.gov/cms/node/106096
