Electrum has released another security update. Have you upgraded your wallet?
Electrum’s official X account (Beijing time, evening of November 8): Version 4.8.4 is out, described as “another security update.” The official release notes (November 6) say it fixes a Lightning Network issue: malformed inbound onion messages from any source could cause Electrum to disconnect from its channel peer. Several other wallet and interface fixes are also included.
That same evening, the official account also issued a reminder: they do not offer private customer support; issues are handled on GitHub or public forums. Anyone claiming to be “Electrum support” and asking to move to a private chat to help you is likely an impersonator trying to steal your bitcoin.
Two simple rules: download updates only from the official website or official channels, and verify the signature according to the official instructions. Treat any “support agent” who contacts you privately as a scammer. If you don’t follow the official account, the team recommends enabling update notifications in the software.
