I actually love in game/lore abstractions of cheaters.
RuneScape once implemented a very robust new system for detecting bots, and when it was enabled, the game was designed to make a dragon spawn and take the cheating character with it's claws. It's not necessary, but for legitimate players, it takes out the frustrating experience of seeing the number of online cheaters and turns into a moment of fun/vengeance.
Happend to me once. I was lazy so I made a Lego mouse clicker. I went away to eat and upon return my character was killed. Not sure if I was banished to a different place. Sad times for a 13 year old.
