A current CISSP does have something to lose if you are playing him...

I don't know that a current CISSP has ever been penalized for backing the
wrong horse, but I suppose it could be an issue. I see it as more of an
ethical issue: when you endorse, you're saying that you know the individual
well ...

I would think that endorsing someone you don't know could backfire if they turn out to not have the experience you 
vouched for.  In practical terms, ethical issues are among the crucial issues for our professional.  If you show 
questionable ethical judgment how much can the rest of your work be trusted?
