Good morning all.
I am aware that spam is a very common and known issue throughout Google Maps but one company has created what I call super spam. There are thousands upon thousands of this company's listings scattered throughout the entire US nation. What makes these listings so unique to me is I cant do anything to the lisitings at all. I cant force suggest edits against them even a little bit. No Google rep has been successful in escelating them to the Google engineers for them to remove the listings. Its almost like this company bought out google. These listings violate so many of googles policies itspretty cool to see such an empire be so immune.
SO i guess my question is....was this some tactic that was done way in the past so it somehow has gotten away with the listings? I would be very interested how a company achieved such a feet to not ony plaster the entire nation and i believe canada as well with the listings but even more so how google will not remove them.
Every single listing here has the following common traits.
1: Every listing has a url for either their portal site
a gmb generated website s
No website
2:The legal name follows the pattern of
Location+Car Accident Lawyer/Attorney+Group
Some follow the pattern of
random word+Location+Car Accident Lawyer/Attorney+Group
4: Every single location that has an address has zero presence of the business existing. No signs nothing even remotely close to a law firm. Some of the listings even have the google street shot showing a street pole.
Unfortunately the forums here wont let me post links or images.
