I've seen it one AAR, but I forget what caused it exactly. The player wasn't cheating however.
IIRC it was something like a unit recruitment which couldn't go through for some reason (unrest jacked up during the magic phase perhaps ?), and so the player had his gold returned to him on top of his regular income which caused the game to spaz out and spout that message. I'll try to find the AAR again for more details.

I think failing to win a merc contract might be able to cause this as well, for similar reasons.

Anyway, unexplained wealth increases happen. Since no one has figured out how to hack .2h files in dom3 yet, its usually the cheat detection being overzealous.
