A malicious company writes a web application and releases it under the GPL, with additional terms requiring that functionality to download the source code remain in place. In this web application, the interface to download source code requires you to donate $100 to the company's Pay Pal account before downloading the code. People who download and use the source code must keep that same webpage, donating money to the original company.
