Previous submitters of the reported wayspot (from past reports):


Additional information: This wayspot has been appealed to be removed twice (see https://community.wayfarer.nianticlabs.com/discussion/34262/fake-wayspot#latest) and was successfully retired as the provided evidence showed that this is a fake wayspot yet the trainer or several trainers (or accounts of the same person) re-nominated this point of interest and has been a live wayspot (yet again) for over a month now. This point of interest has been proven to be a fake wayspot as its real location is located elsewhere (14.6903365,120.9713707) as compared to its current location which has also been proven to be a private residential property.


@NianticAaron @NianticLC @NianticCasey-ING kindly take action on this as this is the third time that I'm reporting the same wayspot.
