iPhone users are being urged to check their charging cables for signs of danger, after a tech expert warned counterfeit chargers pose a risk of serious electrical shock or fire.
Giuseppe Capanna, product safety engineer at the UK charity Electrical Safety First, said fake iPhone chargers could be deadly should they malfunction.
Apple recommends using only accessories that the company has certified and that come with the MFi badge, a stamp on the device that says Made for iPhone/iPad/iPod.
