Fake nomination

Hello,
Recently I submited news POI and was accepted


Everything would be cool, but today I came across this while reviewing



I am pretty sure someone just took my photo. Recently I noticed some bad quality nominations from this city. This one was yesterday.

I guess it will be just denied and new fake nominations soon to be reviewed and probably some will go through.
Can someone look over this nominations.
Thank You.

Hey, any abuse of Wayfarer can also be sent over the form within this help article, so you don’t have to post it on the public forum:

This type of abuse is rarely limited to a single wayspot though, and it may indicate a voting ring if the wayspots are getting accepted (hard to tell these days).

That Pikachu looks AI-generated, the other one is most likely lifted from Wayfarer are there’s no way to get it from IITC or Lightship if it is recent.

@NianticAtlas could this be looked into please?
