Title: lost BTC during use of electron cash Post by: Emgee on November 14, 2017, 06:26:47 PM Hello
I've went through the messages here but I didn't find my case.. So, what I did is installed the (I think) legit Electron Cash software from https://electroncash.org/ I put in my private BTC paper wallet key in the "sweep" menu.. and nothing much happened in Electron Cash But a few seconds maybe a minute later I suddenly saw in the Electrum "watching only" wallet that my BTC balance changed to 0!! A transaction had been done to an unknown (to me) BTC address. Can anyone explain to me what had happened? ??? Like I said, I'm pretty sure I installed the correct Electron Cash software, so it shouldn't have stolen anything. regards Mike Title: Re: lost BTC during use of electron cash Post by: efeaydin on November 14, 2017, 06:35:05 PM Did you check your balance from an online block explorer.
Try to check your balance from blockchain.info.

I didn't use Electron Cash so I don't have any information but my friend used it without any problems. I think there is a virus on your computer which stole your coins.

I used android version oıf electron cash with no problem. Sent my cash to exchange. You need to have better spyware killer on your computer I guess.
