Hi @AntonioMSP and thank you for reaching out to us.

Since you are asking for business owners, the best way they can report a Local Guide, who you think is violating our program policies, is by following these steps here. Google Maps team may take down the review that is flagged as fake or in violation of Google’s review policies.

The business can also reach out to the Google My Business Help for some additional inquiries.

Please keep in mind that Local Guides is a program for individuals.

Claro, el tema es que mi amigo ya denuncio. El tema es que este usuario aparentemente solo tiene reseñas a mi parecer extrañas.

Of course, the thing is, my friend already reported it. The thing is, this user only has reviews that seem strange to me.
