3 years ago I went in circles with Garmin support over the erroneous activities. Typically nothing malicious, but people just not knowing how to use their devices. I finally gave up and realized this was never going to be fixed.

Hi Rachel thanks for the reply! I'm using garmin forerunner 735xt and a edge 820... for a long time... But only today I had an issue with "fake" activity... with "bycicles" going 70kms on a hill... lol!... I'm also using Strava but with the new "update" on their functionalities beeing cut off to free users i was trying to get segments created on garmin... And I've found one activity very strange after analizing I've figured out it was a "fake" but when trying to "signal" like on Strava.. Could not find anything that could do what I was looking for!! Incredible that this can happen and still no fix from Garmim... What a shame!
The activities in my area weren't really fake, just being classified as a run when they were actually cycling activities. Somehow I managed to track down this person through facebook messenger. They realized the issue and changed all their activities to cycling.
So yes, no way to flag an activity as can be done on strava.
It's just amazing that such a basic function is still missing.
I have moved on. I only use segments on strava. No issues with that.
Understandable but since Garmin has invested much more on the challenge badges and cheaters take over the platform...
