Remember the Apple AC adapters with the swappable prongs? The little plugin piece would slide so conveniently into the charging side? Apple said today that some of the swappable AC adapters have been found to present a risk of electrical shock. So some of those are being recalled—and by some, we mean a lot.
If you bought one of these bad boys between 2003 and 2015 in Continental Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Korea, Argentina, or Brazil, you should send it back. If you bought one of Apple's World Traveler Adapter Kits during that period of time, yours is one of the affected as well. The issue is with the two-pronged power connector used in those regions.
Follow the instructions here to find out if you have one of those bad plugs. If you do, the unsafe device can be exchanged for a safer one at an Apple Store or certified Apple service shop.
That little "EUR" in the image above means everything is good. If you've got one of the old models, then you're at risk of "electrical shock if touched." So don't use it, just give it back to Apple.
