Fake Pokestops Located

General Discussion

Hello,

While reviewing, I came across an apartment complex loaded with fake nominations taken from Google images while also not having a Google Maps Street View option, which is likely how they got them approved.

There are several.

Live FAKE Pokestop in game:

  • Wayspot Title: Outdoor Calisthenics Fitness Station
  • Location (lat/lon): 36.15304084393741, -81.19679231953592
  • City: Wilkesboro, NC 28697
  • Country: USA
  • Additional Information (if any): Photo taken from here: Backyard gym

Currently in voting FAKE Waystops:

  • Wayspot Title: Wooden Oak Sandbox With Benches
  • Location (lat/lon): 36.15341390377503, -81.19668945630477
  • City: Wilkesboro, NC 28697
  • Country: USA
  • Additional Information (if any): Photo taken from here: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/502010689690420495/

The others seem more likely to be legit, but I’d advise checking this player’s other nominations to be sure.

Hello and welcome @psyafterlife

It is not always clear where the best place is to post and this area is specific cases. So I will move it to general discussion. Hopefully a member of the team will respond.

For future reference you might find it easier to use the form here:

you will have an email trail.

Edit: Nevermind, I had clicked on the wrong link. I have submitted it via the forum you suggested. Thank you, Elijusttrying.

Hello I have been summoned lol. I first reported the fake wayspot via the abuse form and since my report was rejected I came to the forum. That’s the formal process
