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?

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.
