I’ve seen it. That’s why I’m opposed to comments unless they really bring value (like explaining the why instead of the what).
OK, so let's hear your story about how misleading comments caused a major (or even a minor) problem.
One example was when a method's documentation said that it would throw a certain exception. Turns out it was actually throwing a different exception (deep into the code), so no wonder why we never captured it in time.
