Usually, not. Only if villages or cities spread into the area of the leopards (like in Africa). It may decrease the amount the animals the leopard hunting and it increases the chance to a conflict between the leopards and us. Both of these causes together might make a leopard to a "man-eater". It's highly rare it happens but it might happen.
Yes, on occasion leopards become man-eaters.

One leopard known as the Leopard of Panar, killed 400 people in India before it was killed by Jim Corbett. He was also responsible for putting an end to the Tigress of Champawat, which had killed 436 people, the most on record for any feline.
