That's a bit sensational. There are tons of legitimate, high quality power supplies that will create "big sparks" when you short them out. You can stick a scissor into the next power outlet and chances are you will come away with much more than sparks. The only difference here is that Apple does a handshake prior to switching the power supply outputs on. The cheapie saved on the extra logic. Of course this is only necessary in the first place because the connector isn't very safe with the exposed pins.
