Expert Opinion
It’s odd how a routine request for business hours can turn into a full‑blown scam. Callers using the +1‑780‑851‑3579 number repeatedly claim to be from Google Maps, demand your hours, and often sound rude or robotic. Because Google never contacts merchants by phone for simple updates, any unsolicited call of this kind should be treated with suspicion. Hang up immediately, verify any changes only through the official Google My Business dashboard, and block the number. Never share login credentials or confirm details over the phone, and report the incident to Google’s support team.

A rude man claimed to be from 'google maps' and wanted to verify our bussiness hours. He said I could call him back to confirm, but when I told him we dont confirm anything over solicited calls and tried to explain our Covid-19 protocols, he hung up on me. Definately a scam.

A message was left inquiring about hours of operation. It's puzzling why Google wouldn't simply send an email instead of making phone calls, which seems like an inefficient use of time.
