This Guy Creates A ‘Paperwork Bomb’ And Sends It To His Wife’s Divorce Lawyers After She Tries To Go After His Business

“Be careful what you wish for” has never sounded truer after reading a popular subreddit, Malicious Compliance. It’s a place where people share stories of how they made someone regret making a request, by actually fulfilling it, oftentimes way too literally. Recently, one user shared a brilliant example of malicious compliance that might teach you how to make paperwork bombs like a pro if you ever find yourself in a similar situation.

More info: reddit.com

User Lxs7328 started off his story by saying that he’s been through a nasty divorce. So once his ex-wife decided to go after his business, Lxs7328, was ordered to provide a hefty amount of documentation.

While he initially tried to fight back against the request, which according to him could hurt his business, the divorcee realized it would be easier to comply. Well, easier for him and much more complicated for his ex-wife’s attorney.  Do you want to know how? Read the whole story!

I did something similar when CRA (Canada Revenue Agency) claimed that my travel expenses are suspiciously large (I'm outside sales rep). They did not expect to receive data for 400+ meetings, arranged in no particular order, together with a very large pile of semi-faded receipts (as originals only were requested). Everything was returned in exact same form - no one touched it. And tax man had no further questions...

I've lost count of the amount of times we've had to deal with this on our divorce cases. Soooooooooooo many soon to be exes insisting that there is money hidden all over the place.

Family member is a solicitor - got invited to a clients house and discovered that, yes, there was money hidden. Most times it's not the case but every now and then someone goes to a lot of trouble to hide it.
