What are the potential pitfalls of not properly attributing copyright in PHP scripts?

Failure to properly attribute copyright in PHP scripts can lead to legal issues, such as copyright infringement claims. To avoid this, always ensure that you provide proper attribution to the original author of the script. This can typically be done by including a copyright notice in the script file or documentation.
