Strava has the same kind of problems - many of the casual userbase just want to maintain accountability and get kudos from their friends: "Hooray, you kept your heart rate in the fat burn zone for 45 minutes!" Casual Strava users don't care about the top 1% hunting KOMs at the limits of human capacity. Therefore the Strava dev team don't care about that 1% .And the 5% who inadvertently leave their device recording when they drive away from the park, not to mention the 0.1% who ride a bike just above the running KOM to cheat back their record, completely ruin it.
It's very difficult to build a platform capable of fighting intentional fraud, especially when you have limited control of what your users are doing. It's completely hopeless if that fraud has limited impact on your business. Users with limited moderation/review tools trying to fight fraud are fighting a losing battle.
