Cheating is wrong! Am reading so many post by members panicking about why they were removed from the programme. The answer is very simple .DO NOT CHEAT. Be authentic and abide by the rules and regulations set out by Google. That can’t be difficult
Goodluck to you all . Hope to meet you in California 
My beautiful Malmö.
Sunset pic from västra Hamnen Malmö Sweden. Pic was taken by my daughter when we went out for ice cream. Simple but authentic. PLEASE DO NOT CHEAT ON YOUR REVIEWS AND PICS .
It’s not always about cheating but a computer algorithm can do it.
At the same time not encouraging any cheats.
I get it but I think this place is to propose ideas… I support not cheating of course… thanks for sharing!
Hey @Kaska ,
Thank you for your post.
You are absolutely right, that contributions on Google Maps have to be based on Local Guides Rules.
Also, please note that I have moved your post to the Local Stories section of Connect, since it is more suitable to it.
Please keep in mind that, Idea Exchange is a place on Connect for Local Guides to share their feedback and ideas with our team to tell us about a way to improve the Local Guides program.
To learn more about the Idea Exchange, you can read How do I use the Idea Exchange? article.
Great observation @Kaska let all guides stick by the rules rather than cut corners. Thank you
@Kaska thanks for this information, I would like to advice some local guides that if you have nothing to say about a place in terms of reviews, do not write anything at all, as this is where we start seeing things like a everything is good, place is nice and others, this is proof that there was nothing to say about that business. Simple as that…
Hi Kaska!
Thanks for sharing!
I gotta say that one of the things I love the most about local guides is that you can be honest!! Cheating is absolutely bad not only here but everywhere. Instead of being resourcefull to cheat, peopla can be resourcefull to create, to built, to grow! For God’s sake, people should grow up and be better!

I agree that there are many cheaters @Kaska . I think all LGs should have phones that track locations to prove LGs have been to places they review.
Cheers mate. I’ve seen and observed cheating here
Spot on. That’s the spirit mate
What’s an accepted solution ?
