Never enter your private keys in a suspicious site or don't let anyone see your private password coz it may harm your feelings. just track down the transactions and help to report it. goodluck!

I just checked my Electrum balance because it's been awhile since I checked it ---> it's still there.

I guess there was an exploit introduced into the Electrum clients several months back and if the client was downloaded within that specific window of time then it's possible that that is the problem in this case as well.

Here's a different but interesting Electrum hack that just happened last month: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/7435zs/hacked_using_electrum_wallet_293_windows/

It's possible that the victim did not have a virus or malware on his computer and there was no attacker stealing his private key.

It could be that someone just 'discovered' the private key as part of this project:   https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1573035.0
and https://lbc.cryptoguru.org/about


What this project means is that the wallet software did not generate the private key in a truly random way.
This could be the result of incompetence/ignorance or maliciousness.

Unfortunately i don't think there is a way to link a privatekey with the wallet software that generated it.
So we'll never know who the bad actor is.

I think you accidentally post it online but I can say that is a lesson to you now that you should keep it in a private offline place, I mean in a hard disk, note book and etc. that can keep your private key if your using myetherwallet .
