Feel welcome to remove my post if you're sick of the myth.
Well there's plenty of info if you try to google this information. There are several videos of this procedure posted on youtube.
My mechanic told me they can do this with their OBDII tools provided they have what they needed to achieve the task. My mechanic didn't want to expand too much detail to me because it was like taboo topic or something for the obvious reasons. However, there are legitimate reasons for mechanic to be able to do this. For instance, replacing a cluster because it was legitimately replaced as a defective component of the car. So mileage correction tools would be handy to keep the original mileage on the replacement cluster.
Here's one video for food for thought.

This may not be a honda but I would like to highlight that in my opinion that this may not be that farfetched to occur on any other car manufacturer.
Anything that's electronic can be hacked provided one can find an exploit. As any security expert would say, no system is ever secure.
Now if you want to further argue that these information I post remain base less. Fair enough, you choose to believe they're false, your opinion. Again feel free to remove/edit my post as you see fit.
