The coordinates in your screenshot (-48 -27) seem decimal lat lon
coordinates (wgs84, epsg:4326). Somewhere in the south of Brazil?
Can you provide some coordinates straight from your csv? Just post the
first 2 lines of the csv file.

Dear all:
I am trying to generate a point shapefile from lat/long coordinates
obtained from Google Maps' API. They were generated by a WordPress
plugin (Gravity Forms Geolocation Add-on) and processed in R to generate
a new CSV file with the latitude and longitude in Y and X columns,
respectively. I tried to import them to QGIS using "Add delimited text
layer..." and EPSG 3857, which I found online to be the EPSG of Google
Maps. I now want to convert this layer / shape to UTM in order to
integrate it with my other layers.
The points are created correctly, apparently. When I check their
coordinates and compare to the ranges of values in Google Maps, they
seem ok.

However, if I try to load another shapefile of the same location, it
falls very far from the points. Similarly, If I try to load a map from
QuickMapServices, it doesn't work: "/QuickMapServices: Failed to
download all 1 files. - Google Satellite/".
When I save the point shape to UTM (EPSG 31982) to check the
coordinates, the values are not coherent with other shapes of the same
location:
Converted coordinates:

What the coordinates should look like (approximate values):

I also tried inverting the values of lat / long to x and y, to no avail.
Any thoughts would be highly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
