Bitcoin Forum

Electron is a scam wallet.

I made first transaction and it was OK.
After that i sent another part to another wallet.
And send third transfer to another wallet.

After review;

1st translation is OK
2nd was sent to my wallet and another part to a fake wallet
3rd the same, part to my wallet and another part to a fake wallet


I have clean Virtual Machine and installed only one Electrom BCC client. It is scam!! FAKE!

BE WARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have screenshots and how i can send it to Electrum Wallet owners, they must report about it on their website.

You said 100% true , Here i myself made imoort my Bitcoin private key without any analysis or any suggestion here i made this mistake and puttef my key in the electron , but when i saw the bcc coin then I became happy but when i made withdraw then found that the app going carsh againand again ,just after the click at send section . So  my mind get doubt whether it is real wallet or not because I didn't downloaded from playstore but from.the electroncash site directly , After that my mind get fully that nothing is right and after this when i searched about it in this forum then i get shocked that morr experienced person are already saying beaware , Well it is good that i imported a single wallet only yet , so not much chance to loss much bcc coin because already withdraw my fund of btc , so if yiu have made this mistake that first withdraw your btc at anither address

There are TONS of scams involved in this bullshit. I always knew there would be man in the middle attacks for sure, fake wallets, the whole package. The hackers want to make some easy money, and nothing is better for hackers but confused newbies panicking while trying to download software ASAP. In this case newbies were panicking wanting to get their BCH before the split happened, so this made them download fake stuff.

You have always to check if the executable is legit.

Im afraid you even't even trust the official bitcoincash.org site. Who can guarantee that the binaries aren't compromised?

I think I will need to build the binaries myself and that is annoying but its the only way to be sure that you aren't downloading trash.

Only use this https://electrum.org/

I'm pretty sure you used some fake wallet software instead of the actual BCC wallet which most people used it without any problem.
This is the website where I downloaded Electron Cash - http://www.electroncash.org/ (http://www.electroncash.org/)

Electroncash has no any relation with electrum so reporting it to electrum will do nothing.
Read this notice from electrum here https://electrum.org/bcc2.txt

I have also installed electroncash with the hope of being able to transfer out my free bcc to exchange as soon as possible to dump hard. But found them quite suspicious so I dropped that idea and still searching for trusted wallet to import my key.
 

Wallet exe file was from this web site, i am not so stupid to download it from another source.
Yes, first transaction was okay, but another few was not okay. Not all amount, but it was small, i think if you will transfer more, you will lost all or part of it.

That is what it is clear that this BCC was created to hack the BTC wallets and this is what happening. It was always good decision to first check the full details in this forum and then proceed it. I got saved as i have not done anything for BCC.

In other threads you can hear of people having successfuly used BCC wallet, provided that they have carefully followed the instructions. No I wonder what I should do myself...

Post a screenshot of your nodes.
Why would a scam send to your own address makes no sense at all.

electroncash.org --> the real one! But still shitty. I only installed it on a second virtual system with linux.

electron-cash.org --> SCAM!! So do not download that crap!!!!

When Bitcoin Cash already specified Electron Cash is not their official wallet and they don't support it in any means then why people download un-trusted third party wallets ?
When dealing with bitcoins you should think 100 times before trusting any shit app just to get BCH. Sorry for your loss guys but you need to be more careful.
Many people are dealing in Crypto from long time, you should not fall for events like this!
