No, sorry. The address that I entered on the website is still the same. But it seems that is not belonging to me, even if I carefully copy-pasted in from my 4.02 electrum wallet.
I have just checked my OS for viruses, fake apps etc. Nothing shows up
Apart from
1. A hacker hijacking your website or servers and then changing the address into his if your website's security is weak
2. Importation of your wallet using different address formats or derivation paths
3. Clipboard hijacking malware.

I don't see how it's a problem of electrum wallet.

All the above are excluded, I already explained.

How about a temporary vulnerability in the Electrum 4.02 version? What do you think about that?

Let me get this right.

You say, you put in an address you generated from your wallet a few days back on to your website but now the address appearing there is totally different from the ones currently in the wallet?



Yes, that is correct.

I  have also tried generating a new address now on the 4.02 version NOW, I have checked it and it is valid, it is belonging to my wallet.

I did verify it, I'm using electrum and dealing with BTC for many years now. I know what I'm doing.
I have used version 4.02 for weeks now, received multiple payments with no problems. I have today upgraded to 4.05 thinking maybe the payment is not showing because of this.
I also received 7 payment yesterday on another wallet, so if someone hacked me in any way, he would have gotten multiple transaction from me.

I am not using a fake version of electrum. I have used version 4.04 for weeks now, I got multiple other payments with no problems with the same wallet. I have today updated to 4.05

I forgot to mention that the transaction do show on blockchain, so the customer did send the funds

Big Problem with Electrum Wallet

Hi, on November 25 I generated a new bitcoin address with my Electrum wallet and loaded it in my website. Yesterday a customer contacted me to say that he sent a payment of $1800 and that he didn't receive any confirmation.
I checked my electrum wallet and there is no money in it. I am 100% sure I used the right address, and copy-pasted it correctly, I have done this thousands of times.
More than that, when I try to generate a new address and also look into history, it looks like I never has that bitcoin address, like it's part of another wallet.
Is this because of the DDOS attack? I'm panicking because of this, this is a very big deal for me. Please let me know if you know anything.
I'm using the latest version of electrum, I also restarted the program and also my PC.
Thank you!

Yes, I have bought a couple of miners from them, they're pretty much ok.

Does anyone know this virtual store? is it recommended?
