What’s the typical damage done to the careers of folks who mistakenly claim cold fusion or room-temp superconductor discoveries?
Nothing, people in research usually judge your work for what it is. In non blind peer review your work might not be looked at with as much interest or diligence, as you already lost some credibility
These are often done purposefully. And the scientists are often repeat offenders of academic fraud. It's a very bad look for their career.
