You have a unique "passkey" in the torrent that you download, and the tracker won't let you connect without it. I wouldn't try to cheat it, or you'll likely end up banned. Trackers have scripts to detect tampering.
The passkey is also why you shouldn’t share torrent files.
Not to mention its not a huge scene. If you get black-listed, you might have a hell of a time getting back in to decent trackers if the admins share info on known blacklisters
