Google Maps Easy to Spam

Curated September 13, 2014 by Michael Stuart

Google invests significant money and man-power to fight system abuse related to Google Maps.

CIA MAP

While they are getting closer, Google Maps seems to need some more anti-spam work done.

Other SEO’s mentioned they know people who claim they can create listings in any city, and by any business name, so we know the following:

  • The spammer needs to have control over the phone number
  • The spammer chooses herself the exact location of the listing
  • This tactic was for sale at $3,000

Based on the information:

  1.  Start by creating a brand-new Google account
  2.  Then go to Google Map Maker, and add a new Place
  3.  Receive the call from the Google Maps’ business information verification phone number
  4.   Two minutes after the call, the listing is live, on Map Maker and on Maps
  5.  Go to the listing’s Google+ page and claimed it

Why post this publicly? 
To get Google to stop allowing spam on Google Maps.
