Abusing the power of Local Guide

[DhruvGulati]

I would like to bring the fact in notice some of the local guides in Dehradun are abusing their power just to raise their points and level they are writing fake reviews and fake pics. Even after flagging their reviews with Google maps -they responded it does not violate their guidelines.

"Vivek Patni"-A local guide has written many offensive reviews like they cheat people and poorly rated many businesses even when he has not visited most of them.

Similarly many other young local guides are writing reviews even when they  has not visited the place just copy-paste or writing fake reviews just to increase their local guide level .

Please take some powerful action against them .Users like them are abusing thier power ,writing poor reviews just to have fun and degrading the community and many businesses are being adversely affected.
