Did I just get pickpocketed?

I heard great things about Electrum and decided to try installing the portable version (Windows) to give it a test drive.  I then sent an imported address (18YiwUnAvDJz9eUss3DZGPrH7L8vi9ciDx) 0.01 BTC and things seemed to go well ... that is, until an unrecognized address (1JvojZKzuABZT5iCm6hKJnV7Lm1VQ8iaDk) debited the exact same amount the instant I sent it:

I thought this might be some artifact of the way Electrum works and so waited about an hour.  I still have a 0.00 BTC balance and the blockchain seems complete:

What the heck happened?  Did I just get robbed by 1JvojZKzuABZT5iCm6hKJnV7Lm1VQ8iaDk ... somehow?

Thanks for any insight you can provide!
