LOC can detect cloned cards because cards have a "serial number" attached to them. So when cards are cloned, you'll have two cards with the exact same serial number attached to them. That's how LOC can determine if cloning was involved.

I guess its different with pots because of the sheer number of pots bought & sold. If LOC really wanted to track cloned pots via serial numbers, it could be done I suppose. But the amount of work required to investigate would take so much time that it wouldn't be cost effective for them. I mean, heck, we're still waiting for LOC to fix the Odyssey reward cards glitch (where some people are given double reward URs). Imagine if they had to scrutinize all the pots? It would kill the game if they froze all pots.
