Denis: those are interesting questions. 1) I don't know if the Magsafe chip serial number is related to the charger serial number. My guess is they are unrelated. 2) It shouldn't be too risky. One issue is if the connector says the charger is a different wattage from the actual charger, it might charge slowly. There's also the possibility of bad soldering or something that shorts out. But on the whole, it should be a lot better than a counterfeit charger.
