Problem in my first use of Electrum wallet

[milik]

Maybe someone can help me with this.
Last night I installed an electrum wallet and sent from another account a quantity of btc to the electrum wallet.
Today I opened the wallet and I see that the btcs I have sent have arrived in the wallet but that at that very minute a path was taken from the same total amount of the wallet to another address that I do not know.
I have checked the Blockchain info browser and see that my account received the btcs I had sent and immediately sent them back to another account and this I did not do.
I looked at that other account in Blockchain info and the btcs are there.
I fear the worst, but can anyone give me a hint as to what I can do if there is anything that can be done?
Thank you

I am struggling to be clear on what you are asking.  From my read, I wonder if its possible your "other" BTC was automatically moved to a CHANGE ADDRESS in Electrum.  If I send say 10 BTC from an address to any other address, Electrum will take the leftover amount in the original address and move the remaining coins to a change address.  If so, this address will show in your wallet under change address.  Any chance this is what you described?  You never did say where the original account was coming from.  Electrum, other, ?

edit:  the thread title says first use of Electrum so that answers my other question.  Sorry..

Unfortunately, your worst fears are most likely correct. If all you did was send coins to Electrum... and there is now a 2nd outgoing transaction, that you did not create, that sends those coins somewhere else... then chances are high that your seed, wallet or private keys have been compromised.

If this is the case, there is nothing you can do, those coins are gone

Where did you download Electrum from? There have been a number of fake electrum websites in the past. It could also be general cryptocurrency malware designed to steal seeds and/or private keys... You might want to consider wiping/formatting your computer and reinstalling the OS.

Thanks for your awnser,
I downloaded a wallet from electrum . org and installed as standard  a strong password, but I cant find the way to install two factor autenticator
I send from my Trezor device some btc t the new wallet and I saw is receiving and waiting for confirmations. At this time I was to sleap
Next day when I open the Electrum Wallet I saw the btc has come but at the same time as the incoming transaction (not one second later), a new transaction has been created automatically and it have sent the entire balance to a new address.
I have searched for that address in blockchain. info and from that address two new addresses have been sent to two new addresses another send to address is auto
Cant belive that on the first use I do of an Electrum wallet I have been stolled when Im using different wallets from years and never have a problema
Also I ask me if somebody can do something for a good bounty or if it is definitly lost

Thanks for your anwser,
Is not easy to believe when you are stolen and more when you have try to do as most carefull for years but reality is and thinkings are nothing
This time it's my bad luck. I have to be much more carefull, I know
The masters of the world are at war and the internet is a battlefield and you have to move in here with the best possible protection if you want to take care of what's yours.

i use electrum wallet and i have not for 1 day experience this.i am afraid your electrum wallet is compromised. your coin is gone forever. where did you download the electrum wallet. if its from electrum website then there is possibility that you downloaded electrum application that contain malware that initiate transaction automatically. you need to act fast if at all you still have any coin left. electrum wallet free of any malware will not behave in such way.
