I can (maybe) see a false air of "legitimacy" being gained by emulating popular covers. A "This book looks a lot like these other ones I liked--maybe I'll give it a shot" kind of thing. But I just can't see a lot of readers being outright tricked into buying the wrong book.

I have read some reviews where it was said that the book was bought by mistake. So yes, it happens because of the too similar nature of the cover.
