I have noticed instances where business competitors are posting irrelevant or misleading photos on each other’s business listings on Google Maps, which can create confusion for users. Could you kindly provide guidance on how to remove photos that do not belong to a particular location or are being used inappropriately? It is important to maintain the integrity and accuracy of the information displayed. Photo attached is a spam photo posted in a perfume shop

আপনি ছবির ডান পাশে থ্রি ডট দেখতে পাচ্ছেন। ওখানে ক্লিক করলে ছবিটিতে রিপোর্ট করার জন্য বিভিন্ন অপশন দেখতে পারবেন। সেখান থেকে ছবিটি এই জায়গার নয় বা স্প্যাম ফটো সিলেক্ট করে সাবমিট করুন @Faizan_kazi

This is a serious issue, but you can take steps to address it:
Report the Photo – Click on the image in Google Maps, select “Report a problem,” and choose the appropriate reason.
Encourage the Business Owner to Report – If you know the business owner, they can report the issue via their Google Business Profile dashboard for a higher chance of removal.
Use the Business Redressal Complaint Form – If competitors are repeatedly posting misleading photos, report them through Google’s Business Redressal Form.
Engage in the Local Guides Community – Raise awareness by discussing it on Local Guides Connect, where others may share insights or similar experiences.
Google works to maintain listing accuracy, but user reports help improve it. Keep contributing!
