Google now locations a discover or warning on some Google Enterprise Profile listings inside Google Maps when it thinks a number of the evaluations could also be pretend or fraudulent. We lined this discover when Google updated its reviews restrictions documentation however I needed to spotlight the discover extra.
Mike Blumenthal noticed this and posted a screenshot of it each on Local Search Forum and X – I have been attempting to duplicate this however after going via near a 100 completely different enterprise listings on Google Maps, I’ve come up empty-handed.
Right here is Mike’s screenshot exhibiting the discover that reads, “Suspected pretend evaluations had been lately faraway from this place” with a purple triangular warning icon on the left:
To evaluate, Google says it could actually do these three issues:
- Enterprise Profile will be unable to obtain new evaluations or scores for set time period
- Enterprise Profile’s present evaluations or scores will likely be unpublished for set time period
- Enterprise Profile will show a warning to let shoppers know that pretend evaluations had been eliminated
