Do NOT use Electrum wallet unless you properly know how to verify the program .
Don't scare people and make them think that the verification process is something difficult. It literally takes a few minutes to read the guide on how to verify Electrum > https://bitcoinelectrum.com/how-to-verify-your-electrum-download/

Additionally, EVERY software needs to be verified.

Just because people don't do that, and everyone is encouraging people to verify the electrum download, it doesn't mean that you don't have to verify each software you are installing.

This is nothing related to electrum. The only way to be sure that you are installing the software created by the original developers, is to verify the signature using their PGP key. Whether electrum, wasabi, core etc..
