>WARNING There are a lot of fake versions of Electrum out there. Make sure you verify you are installing the real Electrum by verifying electrums GPG signatures. See guides for how to do that on Windows and MacOS.

Confirmed

>I installed electrum from the repository today and when I tried to send some bitcoin I received an extremely convincing pop-up in the client with pictures and everything saying that my client was out of date and that I needed to visit the site to update. Of course the site linked was electrum.la as opposed to the official electrum.org. Luckily I noticed this pretty fast, but this is definitely one of the most advanced phishing schemes I have seen to date. The electrum package seriously needs updating, I even found a bug report about it from 3 months that hasn't been resolved. Over $3m has been stolen using this phishing scheme and that number is increasing every day.

>tl;dr install electrum from source on the official site, do NOT use the package right now

Electrum is no longer in debian 10 repos
