What is the hazard with GEU 45W Laptop Charger sold via Amazon (2606-0133)?

GEU 45W Laptop Charger sold via Amazon (2606-0133) (GEU) was announced in the last month, in the "Electrical appliances and equipment - Chargers" category. The product presents a high risk of fire because the plug pins do not confirm to the dimensional requirements of BS 1363 and cannot make a secure connection to the socket. This could lead to the consumer being exposed to live parts, presenting a risk of electric shock. The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016 or the Plugs & Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994. That is the hazard as reported publicly by the firm and the regulator; it does not necessarily mean every unit has failed.
