Wouldn't surprise me in the least.

You're talking about one hell of a lot of money at stake in these markets over the course of a typical trading day. You can bet there will be individuals out there looking to exploit any little advantage open to them....& no doubt greed will be a strong motivation & influencing factor for some unscupulous or shady "insider" to present such opportunities to those willing to pay the price to access it.

I wouldn't trust a politician or government head as far as I could throw them.
