Fake POIs in Rostock (just "a few")
Title of the wayspot: Below
Location: Intel links below
City: Rostock
Country: Germany
Additional information:
The whole city is full of suspicios POIs, some of them are obviously faked. I only put these obvious ones on my list, the rest needs to get checked locally.
The players partly put the fake painted supplies on unpainted supplies. Some of them got a sign on it with the adress, which can expose the fake easily. They used all 4 sides of the power supplies. as POIs:
You can clearly see the similr colours of the supplies.
Some are also obviously photographed from a screen:
I cant really check all of those supplies via the map. But those which are obviously fake are listed below.
All POIs with no extra information are photographed from a screen, you can clearly see pixels or monitor lines.

Thanks for flagging, @LukeAllStars-PGO! I've escalated your report internally for review. We will follow-up as soon as we have more information to share. Thank you!
Rostock is really bad. Many honest players have stopped playing because everything is full of fakes and you can't get things under control.
Where I see that you also have "Das Eichhörnchen" listed.
A lot is faked there. I also constantly receive fakes from there for evaluation. For example here:
