Google still does this! They seem to use some sort of generative neural net to produce fake names, descriptions, and even reviews for the trap locations.
You can report the location to Google as "bad data" and they'll delete it, but then a totally different fake location will re-appear in its place a few days later.
I worked once with a contractor who did not have a physical location for their business. They simply worked out of a minivan which they drove to wherever they were needed. But they pretended, to google, yelp, and probably others, to have a business location.
