you should pay attention to the wallet balance not the balance of individual addresses. the wallet balance is displayed in the bottom left of the electrum window.

what you are seeing here is change being sent to change addresses in your wallet. you can confirm that these addresses belong to your wallet by looking at the transaction details. Change addresses are highlighted in yellow while other addresses belonging to your wallet are in green.

Yep, this! Nothing about this looks suspicious to me. Looks simply like change addresses.

Those addresses should be listed under the Address window along with their respective balance. You can also confirm that those addresses belong to you via the console using the ismine("ADDRESS") command.

Forgot to add, escrow.ms, that this is my address:

https://blockchain.info/address/3ARF2FPQqvCccoFyzHxQyK3QCZ3DMCPNa7

and 3AAmK2ybNLoAtiK8sQXkW3TLE7ZACAMTRD is an address I used for Quadrigax exchange. Yet I have only transferred a small amount to them.

Unless I am missing something, History>right click> details on the transaction gives me the info.

Well I don't think your bitcoin wallet was hacked, I think you were watching your balance on windows wallet and it might not be showing your balance properly. Your coins are sent to change address (for example this one 3DZsTkbz4ZAcS8fB7o5PqrenfqdVBbt71E) and I would like to mention that you still have your BCH(Bitcoin cash balance on your main address)

I would advice you to login to your ubuntu wallet again and check your balance.

None of the addresses look familiar.

Just as a background filler each time I plug in my USB I chose "Try Ubuntu without installing" option Then I update, upgrade Ubuntu, install python and then Electrum, enter my seed etc.

I never have used my wallet.dat from my SD card since creating my Seed.

Yes, I am using a MultiSig wallet. I will try that

If you are just using the seeds and never change your seeds any of the character your bitcoin should be there.
Or better to check the history of your transaction if there is a transaction was sent from other addresses that you don't access..
Better to check it carefully..

My Windows watch only wallet is ver 2.8.3. I have left my USB in my laptop while there was 0 btc in my wallet overnight. But not for any extended amount of time during these "hacks". My wallet.dat is stored on a separate SD card. Seed is stored at my office locked drawer and home(no one at home is that tech savvy enough to do this).

Ubuntu version of Electrum I install is 2.9.3. https://electrum.org/#download

Could the difference in version numbers lead to this?

Are you using a multisig in electrum wallet? this is the same as what happen to me before but i am not using ubuntu i was use the tool like quick search that i was downloaded from glarysoft and found that i have a 2 wallet.dat with different location.. and rename the one wallet and imported in the default folder and open it in electrum wallet and it works..
Try to find your wallet.dat instead or if you have a private keys backup about your wallet you can import it but looks like you are using the multi sig i tried multi sig before but you can only get the other private keys and you can get only the other bitcoin address not the address you are using starting from 3xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
So better i think just look for the wallet.dat and import it to the electrum wallet folder so that you can open it in electrum and wait for sync. .

Does any of these address looks familiar to you? Because this address 3AAmK2ybNLoAtiK8sQXkW3TLE7ZACAMTRD   is linked with all the address given above.

and is this your address?

I am pretty sure my wallet got hacked.

I followed the Newbies guide to Cold Storage posted on this forum: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/newbies-read-before-posting-1689727.

Basically, uploaded ubuntu.exe on a USB stick and loaded that each time I needed to send btc. After getting my seed, I created a watch only wallet on my Windows. I would have to install Electrum each time on my ubuntu, but did not mind, since i thought the security was worth it.

Anyways, I sent two small amounts to my Kraken account to test. After confirmation, I pulled up the history details and noticed different addresses along with the Kraken address, far in excess of what I had sent.

I still have some btc in my wallet.

Should I delete my wallet? How do I secure my wallet in the future?

Can you post those address where funds were transferred by hacker* (Assuming your wallet is hacked)
Also please post which wallet version you are using on ubuntu and windows and did you ever left your usb plugged in your windows system and is wallet.dat or your seed is stored on that usb?
