Question Google maps ranking, and removal of false businesses?

I am doing some website work for a small local business owner, and a out of town company which outsources unqualified locksmiths that are scamming people are putting false business locations all over google maps so they get the higher ranking and are paying tons of money for the top google adsense rank like probuly 10$ a click, they are a big company as our business can not pay 10$ per a click. Question is.. how do I get the business to show first in the google map rankings

and the big question.. if I type in the type of business like say "air conditioning" it shows like 1000 business locations and maybe only 50 of them are real. All the others are fakes if you goto the actual location there is no business there. How do I report them and how long does it take for google to remove it? What is the way to get these phoney scammer businesses off google maps?

Thanks!

Dude, I am not saying BS. It is a company that out sources work here to people that have no idea what they are even doing. They qoute you a price like say 100$ then get there break your sh1t or tell you it is going to be more money. They are not a honest business. I am trying to help Local small business against this monster. If you type a certain keyword the whole city is flooded with little dot's on google maps of fake biz.

BTW:::::::::::::: I SAID GOOGLE ***MAPS***.. LIKE WHERE THEY PLACE A LOCATION FOR YOUR BUSINESS, PLEASE RE-READ MY MESSAGE, THEY ARE OUT OF STATE SCAM BUSINESS, I AM TRYING TO HELP LOCAL SMALL BUSINESS...

Now what is the best way to report and get rid of these fake biz sites on google maps?

Just go to the google places listing and at the bottom of the listing their is a link that reads 'Report a Problem' click on that and explain the situation. Also, there is no real time frame you can bank on for this, it could happen quickly, months later or never at all. It likely depends on who sees it and if they feel it is a warranted claim or not.

warranted? YES

Google can take forever, how do I get the fake ones off NOW??

Any better advice around here? SEO ways to black list these scammers?
