I Was just wondering, i see all these good scripts that are cloned and like most people, i rather not pay for something that i can get for nothing. But what are the risks in using cloned scripts?
They're cloned from a look and feel perspective only. They will not have the admin tools that you'd expect because the cloner might have been able to see the user admin, but not the admin admin tools. They're unlikely to be coded well and may be encrypted making it hard/impossible to customise further SQL Injection Security WILL be an issue.
Very janky and impossible to change. It's kind of like comparing a real life dog to a drawing of a dog - it's kind of close, but good luck making it fetch.
