It could be a good infection vector. I’m under the impression that these programs are generally distributed on shady sites, need low-level access and high permissions, and are generally (actually, not sure about this part) proprietary and closed source. So, release some good cheats, and see if anybody important downloads one.

Government officials and security researchers play videogames too, after all… sure, we’d hope they’d have good computer self defense. But it is a fishing expedition and all that.
