I've heard of this previously and yes, I would say, charge with care, be aware of your surroundings.

That said, I'm not too worried as I tend to have a power pack with me and will use the USB port to charge the power pack, instead of my phone.

EDIT: Having a charge only / no data table may help to skirt any data hacking concerns.
