Are there any documented cases of this vector being used against a user?

Not documentation, but... a former co-worker had done some work for intel agencies. He told me about something that was similar to this (though back in the 2008 time frame, so not using IME). If he can be believed (and I can neither confirm nor disprove what he told me, nor can I now prove that he ever said anything), this approach has been used for a long time.
