3. Post that information so anyone can use them.
4. Repete until you have a good sized list.
5. Drop the url containing the list on a webmaster board.
6. Have someone make a few posts that say, to bad they were not using xyz software.
7. Wait for orders.
Pretty good conspiracy theory but password lists will always exist regardless.

If I was going to move your theory forward I would say that XYZ password protection software company would simple search out the lists and then post them here and follow up about their product further along the thread.

This would remove them from the risk of being traced back by their credit card numbers and save them the expense and time of signing up to all the sites in the first place.

Thats just me though....
