Hello, I would like to report a suspected case of malicious location editing of a Wayspot.
Based on map and street-level imagery (Naver Map street view), the original location of this Wayspot was accurate and corresponded to the actual entrance of the apartment complex. However, the current location is offset and does not match the real-world position.
I suspect this may be a deliberate action by a specific user to gain unfair in-game advantage. The moved location appears to benefit a particular player, as the Gym/PokéStop is consistently occupied by the same account.
While I understand that personal speculation is not definitive evidence, the following points raise concern:
-
The current Wayspot location does not align with the real-world object.
-
The original position (visible via street-level imagery) is accurate.
-
The Wayspot seems to have been moved to a position advantageous to a specific player.
I kindly request a review of this Wayspot’s location and, if necessary, restoration to its correct real-world position.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Mod Edit: Removed the screenshots showing IGNs.
Apologies that this seems to have been overlooked.
If you wish to move this you can request it using the help chat bubble.
You suggest a new location it will tgem be up to the team to determine its final location. You can provide photo evidence.
The move will only be agreed if it is to move the location from one tgat is wrong to the correct point.
If it is on a large object and the current location is considered suitable then they do not tend to move it to another point.
A move that is done to manipulate whether something appears in the game is considered wrong and can lead to a sanction.
If you believe and have evidence that this current situation was created by malicious acts then please do submit the form here and the team will investigate.
Are you able to state the co-ordinates for the location?
They should be in the email you received when you first nominated.
Alternatively, right mouse in Google Maps.
I found this wayspot but it has a couple more characters at the end than in your post

Is this your Wayspot? The orientation has me confused.
"In my view, the location is slightly lower than where it’s currently placed, but Niantic seems to have moved it to a good spot regardless.
The links below provide services similar to Google Street View, offered by the two major portal sites in South Korea:

제가 보기엔 그것보다 아주 살짝 아래인 것 같습니다만,
나이언틱에서 잘 옮겨주신 것 같습니다.
