Hi guys,
I installed Electrum 2.9.0 on 07/31/2017 (right before the fork) and moved my measly BTC balance there. Yesterday I restored my wallet (to remove 2FA) and created a new one. I've transferred the entire balance to an exchange and as soon as it was done my browser received a popup (right as I received app popup from Electrum with transaction id). I know web popup is a fake ad trying to scare people into calling fake support number.
I know some apps show web popup ads (PPV) and was curious if Electrum is one of them. Is it just a coincidence or is it someone trying to force people to visit that website, execute JS code and use Electrum later.
