Seriously, these people are trespassing, digging up people's farmland and yards. The worst part is that if there was any truth to the map, its treasure might be long gone. What will be tragic is when someone hits a WW2 mine or unexploded ordinance.

There is no way that map was released without the government knowing any treasure had already been moved.

There have been a few treasure hunts that have led to a lot of trespassing and property damage. The Beale Cipher is one that comes to mind, and if I'm not mistaken there have been a few missing people searching for the Lost Dutchman's Gold Mine.
