What about non-torrents sites serving cracked software? (lemm.ee)

Everybody talks about torrenting, but recently when searched for some software I stumbled on regular sites with extensive collection of cracked programs. There's many of them, but what I looked at closely was filecr . com and what I've seen puzzled me. They have many, many releases. Old, recent what you need. All neatly organized, just like regular legit software store. I've tried one of files and it was clean and worked flawlessly.

How they operate so openly? What's the catch?

If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is. It's possible that this site you found is perfectly safe, but it's also very possible that it's a honeypot or they're serving up their cracks with a side of malware. I would recommend known torrent websites and reputable crack builders. Running a custom, unsigned .exe is already a risky activity, don't make it more dangerous.
