It could hapen in the game LydiaBlonde vs kuhfighter

(Sorry: as TonightOnly said down, 2.... Kd7 and black has a defence 4.... Rc8. Oh, well, I reconsidered to delete this topic, but let it be... Simple 1. Qxa6 and white will take also a secont pawn, on c4.)
 
What actually hapenend in the gama could be interesting too:

Yes, this is a fork, not a double attack. 

 

The whole puzzle falls down after 2...Kd7, when black will have the resource of 4...Rc8.  2...Ke7?? is a blunder that loses on the spot for the reason you provided. Best is probably just 1.Qxa6.

@TonightOnly: phu, u r unfortunatelly right - there are no an advantage for white after 2... Kd7. I jumped oto conclusions to fast. Embarassed Well, probably, if it hapened in a game, I would reconsider a calculation and find it, and then simply a pawn a6 and then c4.

The first position: it is a simple matter.

The second position: 1... 0-0 is bad. Better: Black resigns. Black lost a piece.
