Passport: wrong entry date
I recently flew CDG COO CDG on the same day (not a MR though) and when i went through immigration, my passport has been stamped with a wrong entry date... dated almost two months before the actual entry date.
I realised this when a security airport officer pointed out my entry date (he was trying to get some money...but this is another story
) , i immediatly showed him my boarding pass stating the correct date.
Anyway the wrong entry date was well before the valid date stated on my visa...
I guess it could have been a serious issue if i stayed longer than i did.
Did anyone encounter similar thing?
How did it happen? Did you have to argue ?

Does that mean that potentially hundreds of other people could have incorrectly dated passport stamps issued by the officer you had?
If so, I don't think there would have been any problem because there would be hundreds of other cases of incorrectly dated stamps.

I think it could become a serious issue if you get controlled by the police and according to the entry date you are over the maximum days allowed...
