Known fake Cluster over here:
The abusers use fake maps markers in order to get their nominations approved:
We already removed them.
You can clearly see that the background is not the same:
And this image is stolen from a photosphere:
There is also a second fake marker at this location:
None of the buildings fit with the building from the photo.

@LukeAllStars-ING Hello, why should the two map markers be fake? Why are you removing map markings, were you there? The markers are real, please withdraw your complaint before the POI removed.
If the POI is real, you could surely bring some evidence, right. I mean, you added the marker.
@LukeAllStars-ING is that enough?
I don't think it's fair if only Luke is praised. After all, I deleted the Google markers, not him.
How about if you send a photo with geotag which also shows the surroundings (not only the object) and also the corresponding satellite view?
@NianticGiffard can you please prevent the poi from being deleted there?
Before you get the idea to edit your message. I was so free to take screenshots of it 😘
Besides, I have an even better idea!
Hey @NianticGiffard can you please ensure that this wayspot is deleted and that this person cannot submit any further fakes? He would like to be warned. Thanks.
First he placed fake wayspots around his house and when the fakes were deleted, he unfortunately successfully tried a mobile insect hotel that changes the background on every photo ... 😂
@WayfarerMSE-PGO do you mean that?
Funny. First it stands on the ground in front of a ****, then it stands on the ground in front of a tree and now it hangs on the outside of a fence, which is very likely part of the property. I'll get the popcorn.
@NianticGiffard Ask for support, I have sent photos of the POI with location as requested
What you've done is just provide us with evidence that this insect hotel is not firmly anchored in the ground and changes location on each of your pictures. Thanks for that.
By the way, you can give up. A good loser should know when to give up. The fake has already been deleted. Have a nice day. 🤭
unfortunately that is not true what you say. The insect hotel is anchored and also anchored to the tree. The screws for the anchoring can be seen in the top left of the photo.
In which of the photos and in which of the different locations? :)
Actually only the second photo looks different. The first one seems very consistent with the others he provided, doesn't it?
Where did the second photo come from? It was another picture in the POI, or another POI?
an insect hotel is not a poi😉
this is the same POI, see marking please
This is an insect hotel that looks really good and is over 2.5 meters tall
a large hotel for giant insects. surely a dangerous place
😊
Yes, but what about this one?
Backgroud is very different... What happened here?
especially because the photo is two weeks old. Seems to be unpermanent.
now I understand what is meant
This photo was taken before the storm in Schwäbisch Gmünd. the whole city was flooded and the insect hotel fell over. so that it stands securely, it was moved 1.5 meters back and anchored to the tree. i only updated the photo on google maps, that's all. here is the link to the storm in schwäbisch gmünd:

I hope you are aware that wayspots have to be permanently available? If the insect hotel cannot withstand a small rain shower, I have serious doubts about its suitability.
While you keep making up excuses, I'll get some more popcorn.
Not that my opinion matters, but I'm ok with that.
If the insect hotel has been in the same place and was just pushed back a bit to be better anchored, I don't see any problem, and it does not seem to fit any of the removal criteria.
I think it should only be removed if there's evidence that it's not there.
Lets pretend this is permanent (which it isnt lol), why would you let it stand in the ground? This is one of the things you should definitely NOT do with insect hotels. Especially because of water or other animals. Letting an insect hotel stand on the ground while a storm is even more stupid. There is a full article about how to place such hotels in the Internet (Link: https://www.gartenhaus-gmbh.de/magazin/insektenhotel-aufstellen/), nothing really fits to this one. Whoever places it there just put it there for the photo or is an Idiot (sorry but you need to be careful with them) so I guess its DIY, unpermanent and unofficial.
I can't tell why it's on the floor, I don't know. But what I can say is the insect hotel there to 100%. They wanted photos, I sent them photos, they wanted an explanation for the second photo I took. what do you think of a compromise? i will send you a photo with satellites and location in 1 month or 2 months and you can check whether it is still there.

Thanks for the appeal, @LukeAllStars-ING! However, due to insufficient evidence, we’re unable to take action on the Wayspot(s) in question. We will require an additional 360-degree video taken from the cross junction of Goethestraße and Siechenbergweg till Eutighofer Str covering the path of the reported Wayspot to confirm the claim, please submit a new appeal with the requested additional information. We’ll take another look.
