What is the hazard with Product Recall: 4 Gang Extension Lead sold via eBay (2603-0174)?

Product Recall: 4 Gang Extension Lead sold via eBay (2603-0174) was announced earlier this year, in the "Electrical appliances and equipment - Extension/Power Supply Cords" category. The product presents a serious risk of electric shock because it is not earthed. Under fault conditions, this means accessible parts of the product could become live. If the user touches these parts, they could receive an electric shock. The product does not meet the requirements of the Electrical Equipment (Safety) Regulations 2016. That is the hazard as reported publicly by the firm and the regulator; it does not necessarily mean every unit has failed.
