Gears of War 2 glitchers/cheaters .... downed

Xbox 360 Achievements are serious business. But obtaining that sweet Gamerscore nectar via nefarious means (like gamesave tampering) isn't worth the effort, as shown by Microsoft's sweeping smackdown on Gears of War 2 cheaters.
Xbox Live's Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb informed the community today that the company has zeroed out the Gamerscores of Gears of War 2 cheaters, apparently caught with their hands in the Achievement cookie jar.
"As you know, we are committed to keeping Xbox LIVE a safe and fair place to play for the more than 17 million active members," Hryb writes on his official blog. "As part of our regular safety monitoring we have pinpointed a group of players who have unlocked specific Gears of War 2 Achievements through an unauthorized hack."
Remember, kids, it doesn't pay to cheat. I should know, because I definitely have never ever taken advantage of any glitch, particularly the Left 4 Dead "Jesus Room" glitch. You hear that, Microsoft? That's the truth!
It sort of spoils the game bringing in external save games and tools to gain them.
Put simply though - who hasn't gained an achievement through the incorrect method

I glitched the "Gold Star 20 songs on Expert" achievement for GH3, but I've got over 30 gold stars on Expert now so I technically earned my achievement.
