This approach, while understandable, is unworkable because it fails to include the premise that "all cheaters lie." You have FWAWs on this very thread telling you that they did.

It's a fact.

This doesn't make them untrustworthy people; just untrustworthy at this point in time. The trust has to be re-earned, and full transparency is the way to earn it.
