She was about to start a new job in a few days, after completing training to convert her nursing education from the Philippines to meet Australian standards.
Her husband and two children were still living in the Philippines, but she had hopes they would soon come to live with her, the Guardian reported.
Last week, Fair Trading NSW raided the Sydney-area kiosk from where Aldegeur is thought to have purchased the charger.
Lynelle Collins from the New South Wales Department of Fair Trading said ideally people should avoid using their mobile phones while the devices were charging, but in any case they should avoid non-approved chargers.
Maximum penalties for selling devices that fail Australian standards are Aus$87,500 (US$82,500) and/or two years imprisonment for an individual and a Aus$875,000 fine for a corporation.
The woman's death is the only known fatality in Australia potentially linked with the chargers, but a report from China in 2013 suggested a woman was electrocuted while making a call on a phone that was charging.
