Google will send a local representative of theirs to you door and they will break your legs.

They will just deindex your links and your traffic will tank, but that's if you make it obvious.

Unless you are doing copyrights etc, then nothing happens.
If you using high-quality content (high-quality content doesn't mean it is native speaker written nor they are useful), the site is like a package. It should be very useful for the user if then, no matter what, google doesn't deindex. I own 50 autobloggs and for the past 6 months my competitor (10 of my sites built on auto blogging niche where other sites also build on auto blogs
)So they keep blasting and doing negative SEO with different kinds of tools. All my sites are still ranked and going strong, thanks to negative SEO as well
it's all about prestige and how value. I also use GSA to dominate my sites but not blasts. While my competitors blast on GSA, I build backlinks on GSA..so my point is if it a useful for the user, nah, they don't punish.

There are several significant factors to consider. Firstly, these techniques often violate search engine guidelines, which can lead to severe penalties, including a drop in rankings or even complete de-indexing from search results.
Also, black hat SEO often focuses on short-term gains rather than sustainable growth, which can damage a website's reputation and credibility in the long run.
The use of such techniques also increases the risk of negative user experience, as they often involve deceptive practices that can mislead visitors. It's crucial to weigh these risks against any potential short-term benefits, as the long-term health of a website and its standing with search engines can be severely impacted.

Black hat SEO may yield quick results initially, but it often leads to Google penalties depending on the extent of the activities involved. In the worst-case scenario, your website may disappear from Google search results altogether.
