If you made a substantial profit based on your use of someone else's work, then there is a good chance that you would be sued for plagiarism. If it is just an academic infraction, passing off someone else's work as your own in an academic paper, the chances of a lawsuit are much less.

∙ 11y agoWhy even take that chance. Just don't do it. Plagiarism is the stealing of someone else's work or publication. Direct copy/pasting of copyrighted works would be illegal to use in a public space, like this site, for instance.
When someone creates an original work, they copyright it ... and thus own all the rights to it. Using a copyrighted work is the same as stealing from or robbing someone of what is rightfully theirs.
