Step 2 is a problem, not impossible, but would require a substantial mining investment.   If i took all of my $X000 investment in mining gear I would be able to do that about once a month and it would not be guaranteed each time I solved a block. 


But, if you're mining anyway and can steal a couple hundred extra bitcoins half the time you solve a block; this is a pretty good scam.

If you're creating an orphaned block then you wouldn't get the 50btc... so your whole reward would be the stolen coins.
