AN iPhone charger sold on Amazon has been recalled over a "serious risk" of electric shock and starting a fire.
The dangerous unofficial accessory is known to have caused one fire incident.
It's due to shoddy pins on the plug which aren't the right size.
The Office for Product Safety and Standards has put out an official warning, saying the product fails to meet electrical safety regulations.
Amazon appears to have withdrawn the product from its website.
But anyone who has already bought it is told to stop using the accessory immediately.

"Not only does this charger present a very real risk of electric shock, the product has also been linked to a fire."
Experts have long warned about the dangers of buying cheap knock offs online.
It's not clear how many people have already bought the charger but almost 6,000 reviews were left for it on Amazon before it was taken down.
"Online marketplaces are awash with dodgy electrical goods and this will continue to be a problem until the Government changes to the law to ensure online marketplaces are responsible for the safety of goods sold on their sites," Capanna added.
"Stick to reputable high street retailers to avoid putting yourself at risk."
The official warning reads: "The product presents a serious risk of electric shock as the mains plug does not meet the dimensional requirements of BS 1363.
