When we detect suspicious review activity on a business or a business violates our policies, we may impose restrictions on its Business Profile and you may encounter the following:
- Banner: You may see a banner on the business’s page to let you know that suspicious reviews were removed.
- Reviews Posting restrictions: You may not be able to post reviews or ratings on the place for a period of time.
- Removed reviews: We may hide reviews for the business for a period of time.
For more information on our content policies visit Maps user-generated content policy.
