Getting electric shocked when charging iPhone 16

I just bought an iPhone 16 a week ago and whenever I charge my phone, I get electric shock from the camera button it’s very disturbing and painful. What is the issue????

Discontinue charging the device immediately. Are you using the cable that came with your iPhone? Are you using an Apple wall charger or a third party product? When did you purchase the iPhone and did you purchase it from Apple or a third party vendor?
