Please ban spoofers who are ruining this game

Hello Niantic teams and users,

I am reporting a spoofing issue involving players from Korea that has disrupted gameplay in my town. After I changed my town’s postcard image (It was a picture that I took.), a large number of Korean spoofers swarmed the mushroom in my town (of course, no Korean players are in that area), making it difficult for local players, including myself, to join the mushroom. Due to this disruption, my friends and I decided to remove the postcard images. However, the spoofers (I assume they are Korean players) now join the mushroom with inappropriate in game names and hold the mushroom for nine to ten days, sending the lowest attack points.

I hope the Niantic team takes action to ban players who engage in spoofing all around world, as it creates an unfair gaming environment. If these players wish to participate in mushroom in other countries or towns, there are numerous forums that can help them find mushrooms or friends legitimately.

Additionally, I urge the Niantic team to implement stricter restrictions, particularly targeting Korean players, who appear to be the most frequent offenders, often trolling and disrupting the experience for others.

These Korean spoofers got into my neighborhood, mushrooms, and put their lowest attack power to full capacity. Please make a report button so I can directly report them.
