Electrum 3.0.2 Bitcoins missing

[merlinnoob]

Hey Everyone, im new to this so sorry if this might be the wrong place. I use Electrum and I send some bitcoins to Binance today. Shortly after I see that a new transaction is started but I didn't start it. it is for 0.11676843 bitcoins. is there a way someone could have stolen it? can someone help me please ?

Also I see that on my transaction to binance there is 2 outputs (1 in yellow), the same that is in yellow is in the Input field for when my bitcoins where taken

any help is appreciated!

yellow means it's a change address in your wallet. anyway looks like your funds were stolen. sorry for your loss.

Thanks for the reply. if I post a picture or the address is there any way to check? Is there anything I can do or anything Police would do?
Could it have landed on my wallet but somewhere else?

How long you use Electrum 3.0.2,are you maybe make update of old version recently and maybe download fake wallet?Only site for download Electrum wallet is https://electrum.org/#home and if you download from any other site you will get fake version which steal your BTC.

Do you have copy of your seed/private keys on your PC or did you share it with anyone?

If it is none of the above then you get infected by keylogger or RAT virus,it get remote access to your PC and wait to you enter password in your Electrum-then it was easy for hacker to send all coins to his address.

Is your balance now 0 or you see something?If it is 0 then I doubt that anyone can help you...

what balance are you seeing in the bottom left corner of your electrum window? if the coins are in your wallet they would be reflected in your balance.

if the money has left your wallet then there is nothing you can do about it.

Not sure where my reply went but here again..

I downloaded Electrum from Electrum.org yesterday. My brother then send me 0.005BTC as test to make sure it works, then he send me 0.130BTC, then i send 0.011668BTC to my Binance account (i checked on binance and confirmed that the BTC are there). then all of s sutton i see another transaction that almost all (besides 0.005BTC) are leaving.

I have the seed written down on a piece of paper and didn't share it with anyone
my balance shows 0.005BTC

Could it be that they are stuck somewhere (miners) or in my wallet?
The yel;low address shows up in my ADDRESS, Change, USED section and shows value of 0......

do you need to see that code? or anything else that could help find it?

i just saw in the settings that it was set to Consignor pool.. can that make the difference and that is where the bitcoins are?

I think much better to give the bitcoin address and the the transaction ID of what transaction you mean that your bitcoin was missing..
We will try to investigate what the issue or cause of the wallet you are using.. Honestly i am not using 3.0.2 except for electrum 3.0 in mobile i didn't experience any problem the same as yours.  And like the other said my guess you download a fake wallet software which is possible there are somebody trying to steal your bitcoin from your wallet.

My suggestion right now if you are not using the segwit wallet better to use the low version of electrum wallet like what i used right now try the electrum 2.9.2 this wallet for me is stable or the recent version 2.9.3 you can download here http://download.electrum.org/
Please use my link not use the other link or searching from google because maybe you can get a fake link.

the 0.11676843 BTC has been sent to a "bc1" (aka bech32) address... the only wallet that I know using bech32 addresses at the moment is an Electrum SegWit wallet. Unless you set up another wallet within Electrum and then sent your coins to it, those coins are NOT in your wallet anymore.

It was sent with a ~530 sats/byte fee... I suspect they probably decided not to take the 0.005 because it was either unconfirmed, or wasn't worth taking due to the fees involved.

In any case, if you did not send that transaction, then those coins are gone and your chances of getting them back are basically zero
