[FR] Multiple spam/user report

Hi Googlers,

i would like to ask you to forward my request to the best team: i think that, to fight spam, selected users could be allowed to have access to a page/form where they can report:

 

  • several images belonging to the same place
  • several reviews from the same user
  • a whole user contribution profile
  • a place affected by spam (pictures/reviews/edit)
  • several wrong pictures for the same place

for a more expedite investigation on places and profiles.

These reports should not have been subject to captcha, as the users accessing are already verified and trusted.

This program could have a name itself, something like "Trusted Reporter" (just like Trusted Verifier) and could live in the same LG ecosystem or on a new program.

 

Thanks for reading my request.

Re: [FR] Multiple spam/user report

Actually spam/wrong pictures boost up because peoples follow the google maps tips when they made a pic NEAR a point of interest.

Trusted Reporter is a better solution, i lost my count about report to google wrong pics with poor results.

Over a TRUSTED REPORTER system i suggest you a simply message before uploading PIC, example: 

 

New pic of Statue Of Liberty with my family or my selfie face---->message appear---->

In this photo there seem to be people, sure that this is the point of interest in question? Try taking a new photo that does not have any personal content other than the subject.

 

Or New Picof another subgect near the main subject:

This photo does not seem to be the main subject (the current Google recognition algorithm should be sufficient to distinguish a flower from the statue of freedom)

Re: [FR] Multiple spam/user report

This is really necessary feature. This is so hard to report many spam or unrelated photos or reviews individually by selecting same reason and passing captcha times and times. This cause we only report some of such spams and most of them remain on the place.

@LucioV I just want to post this and found that you've already requested this feature.

Dear Googlers we really need this.
