So i bought this keyboard and i really liked it but now it scares me. I guess the fault is with the earthing of my house. But still an electric shock from a keyboard was the last thing in my mind lols.I googled the issue but it seems i'm the first to experience an electric shock from this keyboard on the planet. I guess i'd settle with the one that comes with a plastic frame on top like hyper alloy or something lol.

First stop using the keyboard. And probably your computer as well.

Or at least move the computer to another location where (hopefully) shocking does not occur.

If shocking does continue, then the problem is in your computer.

Get an electrician or other knowledgeable person to check the computer's electrical outlet and "earthing" (aka "grounding").

If the computer proves to be the source of the problem you will, again, need a knowledgeable person to take a look at the computer, find, and repair (if possible) the problem.

Otherwise you will continue to be at risk for shocking, a fire perhaps, and/or damage to your computer.
