Using a Cellphone when it is being Charged

I just came across a blog and read a post that contains information a mobile phone user must know. But I seriously doubt its authenticity.

via infoCT

Don't answer a cell phone while it is being CHARGED!! A few days ago, a person was recharging his cell phone at home.

Just at that time a call came through and he attended to it; with the instrument still connected to the mains. After a few seconds electricity flowed into the cell phone unrestrained and the person was thrown to the ground with a heavy thud.

His parents rushed into the room only to find him unconscious, with weak heartbeats and burnt fingers. He was rushed to the nearby hospital, but was pronounced dead on arrival.

A Cell phone is a very useful modern invention. However, we must be aware that it can also be an instrument of death.

Never use the cell phone while it is hooked to the mains!

just to add more.. news source is valid and its a true incident.. but again its fault of battery or charger.

well, the reason behind it is that.. battery wasnt good or it was over charged and or charger is not of a good quality.. coz operating cell phone while its being charged is not harmful, only harmful is charger or battery.. most of the time battery is harmful.

I agree with you. It is probably a rumour. I never heard about such a thing. I have edited the post and made this thing clear.

Hi mate, any web news link to confirm this? And in what country? what phone models? It could be just a rumor if its authenticity not being confirmed. :(

I do check the source link, however I holding my initial stand before any news link revealed. Agree?
