I was afraid of this happening, and there have been rumors spread that Google will set a new filter up-- But it has not been confirmed.

In the Google guidelines, it reads:

Avoid tricks intended to improve search engine rankings. A good rule of thumb is whether you'd feel comfortable explaining what you've done to a website that competes with you. Another useful test is to ask, "Does this help my users? Would I do this if search engines didn't exist?"

Don't employ cloaking or sneaky redirects.

These quality guidelines cover the most common forms of deceptive or manipulative behavior, but Google may respond negatively to other misleading practices not listed here, (e.g. tricking users by registering misspellings of well-known web sites). It's not safe to assume that just because a specific deceptive technique isn't included on this page, Google approves of it.
So... Just beware of any penalties if you're caught using a redirect.
