City: Eggesin
Country: Germany

Photos to support your claim:
Additional information: A Pokémon Go player from the small town of Eggesin made small information boards, placed them for 1 photo, submitted them and then immediately removed the boards again and thus built a fake educational trail in his street, consisting of 21 fakes.
Among other things, a plaque was made and attached to a stone for a photo.
You can see straight away that it is just a small wooden plate with a few silver-plated stickers. The stone is really empty. This is abuse of the system!
I have now reported all fakes and have already provided a small part with a photo sphere to prove that everything is lies and deceit.
Photosphere as evidence: https://goo.gl/maps/pPM84L7N7wJJMTpX6
P.s. If you shouldn't delete all the surrounding fakes (information boards about tree and fruit types) after the first report, I am forced to create a photo sphere for everything.

Appeal Accepted- Thanks for the appeal, Trainer. After reviewing the additional evidence provided, we’ve decided to retire the Pokéstop/Gym in question.

Hey
What did I just discover? Despite the photosphere that is still online, the same fake was accepted again at the same location.
The person simply does not learn anything from it! Please do something and remove the fake again!

Same proof as above: Photosphere as evidence: https://goo.gl/maps/pPM84L7N7wJJMTpX6
You should compare the old and the new photo, then you will see that this plaque has changed its position and is now further to the right than it was before. The part was only placed there for 1 photo and in truth doesn't exist!
If that is not enough for you as proof, there is something very obvious to expose this fraud: "Kleiner Münsterländer" is a breed of dog and "e.V." is the German abbreviation for "eingetragener Verein" in English meaning "registered association" - but no such association exists in Eggesin.
After this person has again attached this wooden plate decorated with stickers to the stone, I would not be surprised if all the information boards are set up again for photos ... It is unbelievable how resistant these fakers are to learning! It's only been 10 days since the deletion and he immediately relocates the thing and successfully submits it. Bold!
Hello again @Brukterra-PGO! Please report the Portal in question through in-game if you haven't already. Our team will look into the report and follow-up with you. Cheers!
Good Morning NianticEG,
I reported the fake again on the same day. Thank you for looking into this thread again.
Unfortunately, it is a big problem that fakes are accepted again after a successful appeal, but then nobody looks into the old threads.
I am pleasantly surprised that it is different this time. Kudos to you!
@NianticEG Thank you very much!
The fake was finally (again!) removed.
I hope he doesn't try again, if he does we have enough photos to compare 😅
