Hello,

My wife noticed a "burning plastic" smell coming from an outlet in the
house that a cell phone charger was plugged into. I pulled out the
charger and it was hot as hell, as was the outlet. There is also
discoloration over the outlet from the heat I guess? I shut off the
breaker for it, and unscrewed things, and here's a picture of what it
looks like:

Im going to leave the circuit breaker off until i figure out what to
do. Is this a big deal? Should i just replace the outlet? or is my
house about to burn down?

Thanks
Steve
