Reporting a Local Guide

Hi I m new here… and I m just about to start my journey. But I saw a suspecious review and hundreds of pictures from a local guide from Karachi. When he post about places in karachi he post normal taken pictures. But 75% of his reviews and pictures he claimed that he took there. But I m telling you he is a fake person. He is uploading pictures which theift from internet , mostly download from internet. Is that allow to download pictures from anyone’s profile and upload on google maps just for points gaining ?

He got more than 300000 points by uploading these fack pictures . If its allowed than I can be master reviewer and master photographer in just one month. You can check his profile that how he can reached at level 10 and how he have more than 300000 points

Check this please

Name of local guide

[Redacted]

Hi @KashifMisidia , please do not share this kind of post.
