What prevents from sending junk shares to pool, and block share to yourself?

What prevents you from sending your invalid shares to pools for their point system and when you find a winning share, redirect that one to yourself???

This effect can shut down all pools

The difficulty of the shares you submit is checked thus you can't submit junk, you need to mine using the pools block otherwise you earn nothing. The pool's block has the generation hardwired to the pool's wallet so there's no way to redirect a winning share to your wallet.
