Hi,
I've posted 2 messages on /r/bitcoin during the past week and I noticed that a member told me via PM to install Electrum twice. I guess he did that after reading my post saying that I had an issue. I am concerned by his message since he is promoting Electrum and asking to install it, but I'm pretty sure it's a malicous program. He is linking to this github page: https://github.com/specmilo/electrum From what I know the correct Electrum github page is: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum. Therefore, I think that some people are trying to spread malwares by finding "unskilled" people on /r/bitcoin.
Please be careful with the links other users send you and double check if the repo/sites are safe to use.
Cheers.
