Default Electric outlet

I recently changed in electric outlet cover on our enclosed lanai. On further inspection I noticed severe corrosion on the outlet where the connections were made. It looked hazardous so I replaced two of the outlets. This outlet was never exposed to the elements other that the heat and humidity. The outlet that was removed appeared to be an indoor type. Just an FYI. Wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem. Our home is 10 yrs old. I feel this could have started a fire or a short somewhere down the line.
