Just randomly rating hell no of places to gain points.
I couldn't find any proper way to report his profile.
You can see he has rated so many places in few mins.
One place is almost too far from other. So chances are high he hasn't visited any. Still, Google is accepting this reviews.
He has even rated my business. We are a development company and never served anyone named "Rashmin". It doesn't affect as much but just curious how to report such spammers?
- awaywopassd 8y agoPersonally, I don't rate immediately after visiting a restaurant/business. I would rate them while bored at home or standing in a line. So if he posted multiple reviews in a few minutes, it doesn't mean that he never visited those places.
- gesman 8y agoIf google cares about this - they already detected it and adjusted whatever they need internally. If they don't care about it - no amount of "reporting" is going to make a difference
