Bogus Proofs

Bogus Proof Example 1: $0$ can be written as $0 = 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + ...$, and since $1 - 1 = 0$, $0 = ( 1 - 1 ) + ( 1 - 1 ) + ( 1 - 1 )...$ because of the first statement I said. Now, we can change this to $1 + (-1 + 1) + (-1 + 1) + (-1 + 1)...$, and because $-1 + 1$ is $0$, $0 = 1 + 0 + 0 + 0...$, which means $0 = 1$. Crazy right? Even crazier is by adding $1$ to both sides, we get $1 = 2$, and now we can add $2$ to get $2 = 3$, and linking with the OG equation $( 1 = 0 )$, eventually we get 0 = infinity. Now you don't have to worry about calculation errors, because every integer is the same! :D
