Massive abuse in Nikko City

I had been seeing suspicious submissions in the area for some time. And this time I investigated the area.


・Three false spots

Title of the Wayspot:安全祈願の石碑

location:https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=36.741813,139.557174&z=17&pll=36.741813,139.557174


Title of the Wayspot:丹勢の地蔵

location:https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=36.741449,139.557389&z=17&pll=36.741449,139.557389

These two are photographed in front of me.

As you can see, they are fakes that don't exist.

We don't know where the images were stolen from, but as for the safety monument, the spotlight photo shows a factory behind it, which suggests that it is on the premises of the killer's workplace, which will be discussed later.


Title of the Wayspot:石輪のオブジェ

location:https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=36.741162,139.557017&z=17&pll=36.741162,139.557017

It is not in my purview to approach directly above this spot. However, I clearly know where the image was stolen from.


Title of the Wayspot:光林荘のオブジェ

location:https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=36.729771,139.555593&z=17&pll=36.729771,139.555593

If you compare the photos, you will see that they are exactly the same. This is the correct spot and the photo has been taken. It seems that they duplicated the fake one from here and placed it in a convenient spot for themselves.

I have found the above three places in my review and reported them via Google Forms, but it didn't seem to have any effect.


・Other places of interest

Title of the Wayspot:星野家日本庭園

location:https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=36.739576,139.552882&z=17&pll=36.739576,139.552882

As you can see in the photo, the garden of a private home is the spot.

There is nothing on site to support the description, it is really just a private home.


Title of the Wayspot:黒い石碑

location:https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=36.735135,139.555617&z=17&pll=36.735135,139.555617

The location is behind the main gate of the elementary school. In other words, it is on the grounds of K12.


Title of the Wayspot:清滝郵便局

location:https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=36.737241,139.557137&z=17&pll=36.737241,139.557137

Title of the Wayspot:清滝出張所

location:https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=36.736236,139.556993&z=17&pll=36.736236,139.556993

These two are not unauthorized spots, but since they are in the same area, they are listed in passing. (I'm troubled by the fact that I haven't received any e-mails about the results of my removal requests lately!)

The post office is not located at the spot. Only the building remains as a trace.

And if you look at the location of the sub-branch, you will see that the post office has been built there. Since the sub-branch was demolished and a new post office was built, the spot should also remove the sub-branch and move the post office to the location of the sub-branch.


Title of the Wayspot:親子像

location:https://intel.ingress.com/intel?ll=36.737786,139.555259&z=17&pll=36.737786,139.555259

This is another place I can't enter with my authority, so I can only explain it from spot photos and aerial photos, but it seems to be in a pond and you can't walk to it. It exists out of alignment.

However, this is a spot that has existed for a long time, and the person who made the fake one seems to have just added the photo later. The two nearby spots were applied for by the fake person.

And here are three that were only eliminated in Pokémon GO. This pattern is usually the result of landowners requesting removal due to internal incidents. This suggests that the person who created the fake was someone who had access to the site, had problems with it, had it removed, and then recreated it in a convenient location for himself.


・About the Applicant

Arrange the images of the surrounding spots, including the spot above.

There are similar names on the list.

So I took a look at the Pokémon placed in gyms and the lure modules I happened to find.

There are even more similar names in the list.

Here is a list of at least the ones I have seen.

If you guess from the number at the end of the word, it looks like there are more. With this many multi-accounts, it would be possible to get any fake one approved.

We will have to work with the Pokemon GO management team on this issue and also look into the activity records of players in this district.

How many accounts are there with the name "woofaye"?

And are they illegally getting their spots approved?

If we don't investigate and punish all of them, this area will be filled with fakes and we will lose the wayfarer philosophy.


Thanks for asking.
