Aaaand I found more:
Another fake: https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=52.030541,7.111387&z=20&pll=52.030533,7.111552
Real location is here: https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=52.030858,7.103841&z=19&pll=52.030815,7.103909
Source: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:Stolperstein_Hauptstrasse_22_legden_Rika_Seligmann.jpg
And this one: https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=51.952667,7.158453&z=20&pll=51.952583,7.158429
Real location is "Weberstraße 4" Coesfeld
Source: https://www.azonline.de/Lokales/Coesfeld/3984300-Coesfeld-Erste-Stolperstein-Verlegung-im-Januar
And another fake close to the last one: https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=51.951763,7.159423&z=20&pll=51.951777,7.159493
Real location is here: https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=51.947219,7.16844&z=20&pll=51.947227,7.168359
This one is a bit more tricky because the photo is cropped cleverly but it can be confirmed on Wikipedia as well: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_Stolpersteine_in_Coesfeld
(I think the abuse team should check other submissions from the user who created these fakes as well. A lot of POI in the region seem suspicious but sadly I have no hard evidence to confirm)
For example these two are exactly the same image:
I suppose most of these boxes are fake
There are a lot of suspicous wayspots in Coesfeld. But there are painted electricity boxes there. https://www.azonline.de/Lokales/Coesfeld/2311066-Kuenstler-von-2lefthands-haben-jetzt-noch-weitere-Kaesten-im-Stadtgebiet-besprueht-Aktion-der-Telekom-Immer-mehr-bunte-Kuehe-am-Strassenrand
So this makes it hard to uncover those faked ones. Bt it seems that there are atleast some duplicates.
And there are some other suspicous wayspots which are not Stolpersteine or painted electricty boxes

Photo taken from screen. This seems to be the real location (same bad quality photo though): https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=52.697751,7.292043&z=19&pll=52.697562,7.291735

Real location is here https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=47.826725,10.019307&z=20
The real location has two POI. Those are duplicates.

As you can see in the image this is a cluster of 5 Stolpersteine but the cluster currently has 2 seperate POI at it's real location.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention, @DerWelfe2205-PGO! I have escalated your report to our team and will follow-up as soon as we have more information to share. Meanwhile, I'd really appreciate if you could report all the Wayspots via the Abuse form if you haven't already. Thank you!
Thanks for looking into it. Found another one:
The photo is taken from a screen. The real location is in Třeboň, Czech Republic.

The fakers have used basically every Stolperstein multiple times. I will follow up as I find more.
By the way the city has a lot of crosses with photos taken from screen if someone wants to take a closer look: https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=51.396106,8.577364&z=20&pll=51.39601,8.577387
