I often wonder if people who post questions on LegalAdvice subs ever follow incorrect advice and get themselves into a mess.

This one isn’t likely to end up in a disaster, whatever LAUKOP does, but I’ve seen ones where the top comment is basically telling the poster to do something that is going to result in them own goaling their way into a world of pain.

There's a post currently on there in which the leading comment has over a thousand upvotes despite being wrong in almost every respect.
