Did the shell script change between the time when it was working as a cronjob and when it started failing as a cronjob? (If so, what changed?)

Did something change on the system running the cronjob between the time when it was working and when it started failing as a cronjob? (New OS release installed? Networking failures reported on system console? ...)

Did smelting change on the system from which you are retrieving files between the time when the shell script was working and when it started failing as a cronjob? (New OS installed? Networking failures reported on system console? Change in the route used to connect the local and remote systems? Change in the permissions or ownership of the files being retrieved? ...)
