No, we have seen a user that downloaded from the official Electrum website years ago but was still scammed by the pop-up Electrum wallet notification. I think a strategy used by online theft to steal from BTC and download from the Electrum official website is not enough either if the wallet is not verified.
I just found out about this news because it's impossible for wallet software from the official web to pop up (notifications) which are dangerous for its users, I'm also an Electrum user for a long time but I've never experienced that and my Electrum wallet has remained safe until now. Maybe you should check your pc/desktop and scan for viruses regularly because there are third party influences that take advantage of notifications on electrum to steal your assets.
I am not talking about something that happen to me but I am talking about something which was once repeated on this forum years ago.
Having said that, I don't know if you notice that some years ago electrum wallet have a setting that allow the automatic upload of application clients whenever a new version is released and that doesn't mean the wallet is not downloaded from the official website. I think the advantage of the auto-update is what the hacker used then to steal the Electrum wallet users then.
