That, or Cinder wanted to get Team RWBY out of the way, since Team RWBY somehow keeps popping up right in front of the bad guys and putting hurdles in the way of their plans.


 * Ruby tried to stop Roman from robbing a Dust shop, leading to Glynda getting a glimpse of Cinder.


 * Blake (and Sun) interrupted a huge Dust heist at the docks, which led to Roman having to flee and leave behind most of a giant shipment of Dust.


 * Blake (and Sun) infiltrated a White Fang rally and found out about the mechs and the White Fang gathering in the southeast. Then Roman flipped shit and tried to stop Blake and Sun, leading to Team RWBY fighting Roman in the mech. All of this exposed that the White Fang were the ones who got the mechs and that they were gathering in the southeast for something. (Sun and Neptune were pretty useless in all this, so they're not perceived as threats)


 * Ruby just happened to see Cinder sneaking around during the dance and followed her to the CCT, leading to her almost getting seen by Ironwood.


 * Team RWBY showed up in Mountain Glenn, attempted to stop the White Fang's plan, and caused the plan to happen days before it was supposed to.

Cinder wanted to make something happen that generates a massive amount of negative energy. Why not target specifically a member of the team that keeps mucking up her plans? Two birds with one stone. She got the negative energy she wanted to attract the Grimms' attention, and Team RWBY will be busy dealing with the fallout of what happened to Yang, so the bad guys can do what the want, hopefully without Team RWBY noticing them.
