Malicious Location Edit Appeal - Moore Park
Waypoint was maliciously edited to create a group of 5 waypoints in close proximity to each other to allow simultaneous luring in Pokemon Go. Correct location was it's previous location before the location edit. Because the edit changed the cell the waypoint was in it has now lost it's status as a gym in Pokemon Go.
Title of the Wayspot: Moore Park
Location: -27.500141, 152.963767 (Approximate location from before malicious edit)
City: Indooroopilly
Country: Australia
Screenshot of the Rejection Email: I did not do the edit I just noticed that it has moved maliciously in the past couple of days.
Photos to support your claim:
Sign featured in the waypoint photo can be clearly seen in the below street view which shows it to be in its previous location.
Additional information: This waypoint has lost it's status as a gym in Pokemon Go due to this malicious edit. It would be beneficial to the local community and they would be grateful if it could have its previous status reinstated if you find this information sufficient to overturn the recent location edit.
I can provide a screen recording of myself standing at the correct location in Pokemon Go viewing the waypoint then switching to the camera to show that I am at the correct location and the waypoint is not.

Thanks for reporting, @CowInASuit-ING! We have reviewed the reported Wayspot and have moved it to its correct location. Also, we can confirm that is a Gym in Pokémon GO. We have implemented various steps to counter abuse that includes but not limited to tanking their profile stats, disabling the Wayfarer privileges, banning their in-game accounts.
@NianticEG it appears you have moved the wrong wayspot. The wayspot which was maliciously moved was "Moore Park" (https://intel.ingress.com/?pll=-27.497501,152.964463), however, you appear to have moved "Witton Creek" (https://intel.ingress.com/?pll=-27.500139,152.963775). Could you move the "Moore Park" wayspot back to its correct location and reinstate it's gym status?
Hi. Is that you?
