Hello!
I recently purchased .082 btc from a friend, he sent it to my electrum wallet (I used a desktop one because my coinbase was having issues) from coinbase. He sent the transaction about an hour ago to this address bc1qpk6enpzm8am56xudkyjnw4086egk848chrg5g8. He sent me a screenshot of the transaction to the address and it says it has 3395 confirmations and that it's complete, but nothing shows up in my wallet. I downloaded the MacOS version 3.88 (I believe) from electrum.org
I looked up the address on several sites and nothing showed up to the address. I'm very confused
Please help!

The address is empty which means your friend is not telling the truth.

Broadcasted an hour ago is not going to have that many confirmations. He edited the screenshot and gave it to you.Blockchain is an open ledger. Any transaction is going to stay forever here. There are no need to have a screenshot as a proof. You can ask your friend to give you a TX number. I bet he can not.
If he is trying to scam me, is there anywhere I can get this amount of bitcoin instantly? I want to get in before it starts rising in price. Luckily I didn't send the money for the bitcoin first! I'm glad I asked for help. Thanks so much
