Anyone know what "Google Gifts To Our Users Go To" is?

Hi All,

 

Can someone tell me where this message is coming from? I can't find anything on the helpdesk or even in standard google search. I've redacted some locations - those boxes aren't part of the problem. I think someone is messing around and trying to gain access to my location but I want to be sure.

Hi @JohnFS this is something that happens; maybe a company is trying to start spamming using the Sharing location feature.

To stop unknown users ask you to share your location: open  google maps app, goto settings => Notifications => People & places => remove the option  "Location-sharing requests".

Thanks Lucio! I figured it was a bad guy. It's too bad these people have to ruin everything they see.
