“Using someone else’s charging can cause damage to the smartphone and give hackers access to your personal data and important financial information”, says Mikhail Kogan, head of analytical research at the Higher School of Financial Management.
“Many technical experts advise using original chargers, rather than their cheap Chinese copies, which may differ in voltage, voltage range and frequency. A fake charger can not only provoke a fire hazard, but also disable the smartphone adapter or software that monitors the level of charge of the gadget,” explains the expert.
