1. If you can't guarantor marketing funds, you shouldn't be in this business.
2. It seems strange to me to create a new wallet (given that you have been working with other clients for more than one year). I would understand if you said that you do this all the time, but this is also strange because having a notebook with different private keys, and constantly switching from one wallet to another is a complete disrespect for your personal time). As a client, I wouldn't send you money if you didn't sign a Bitcoin message from any Bitcoin Address you've previously used to store campaign funds (or at least the one linked to your account here).
I created a new wallet for these campaigns since the previous Electrum wallet I had was not segwit, it's a legacy wallet, eats more fees.2.

Sorry for your expensive loss mate @julerz12, that's quite a big amount here in our country but I know you can work on it and cover your loss fund and pay back these two companies.
I've encountered this before but it wasn't version 4.3.2, upon opening the Electrum app on my laptop, there's a pop-up showing that I need to update the current version before I can proceed to make a transaction. So I went to the official website and downloaded the latest version then deleted the old one, so meaning I didn't click the message pop-up on the screen. (Everything went fine and that time)
My question is, have you clicked it?
I thought you were not using a hot wallet like Electrum since you've been here quite a long time managing signature and bounty campaigns.
But whatever mistakes it is, just face it and never do another stupid thing as you think to end this world, that doesn't solve the problem. I read the suggestion of @Hhampuz which is ideal to follow.

I clicked it but I did not download anything. It redirected me to Electrum's website but I did not proceed on updating the wallet.
I use Electrum mainly for convenience, it allows sending rewards in batches.
Edit again, some screenshots:
I am really sorry for this accident you got and hope you will resolve it and come back.Is the screenshot a message you got after upgrading your Electrum?
I searched and did not find any latest news or reports about Phishing attack on Electrum wallet. A past attack is in 2018 4 years ago. I am not so sure you got a same problem.
Electrum vulnerability allows arbitrary messages, phishing

Does this attack come back?

When did you download that version?I did not get a message like yours with my wallet.
I even verified their signatures at that time to be sure.
There was no similar pop-up like the ones in previous phishing events. Only that little notification on bottom right of the wallet. I did clicked it though and it points me to Electrum's website but I did not download anything from there.
