US$500 Reward for help leading to recovery of Bitcoin Cash

[Viscera]

Hi all,

I'm having some trouble with the Bitcoin Classic BCC wallet. I used the latest Bitcoin Core wallet to move my Bitcoins and keep them safe. I then took my old wallet.dat and used the bitcoin classic BCC wallet but when I put it in and ran the wallet, it says I've sent all my BCC? I never moved it and the amount that's been sent is using the same BTC public key and for the same amount.

I've not lost any BTC but if I don't get to sell my Bitcoin Cash I will be kinda bummed. Any help anyone?

US$500 reward for information leading to the recovery of funds (or 10% of the Bitcoin Cash, whichever is the lesser. Paid in BTC)

On the positive side the transaction public key does not show up on the Bitcoin Cash block explorer.

But in my wallet it shows as spent, having said that I immediately shut down the wallet and didn't let it sync... so anyway, I'm a bit lost here. I have about 6 old wallet.dat files that I could try but am nervous to try again until I get some help.

have you checked the block explorer for BCC if the funds have really been send?
And what address the BCC might have gone to?

What is the BCC wallet adress?

maybe yor BCC wallet is connected to BTC node

if you know the BTC address is empty, you could sweep private key in coinomi BCC

I will edit my post to include this link for clarity. Thanks

I would try sweep the priv. key in coinomi. I don't know if unused BCC addresses  show up with or without their fork balance in the block explorer. But the address has zero BCC transactions.
Seeing the BTC address is empty, I don't think there is any harm in doing so.

Hi Viscera! The address 1MzMVpvSc9LWi947a4E3LvzkGNrLqsJh1N doesn't have and never had any Bitcoin Cash balance
as it didn't hold any BTC when the split occured on August 1, 12:37 p.m. UTC at block height 478558.

You're looking for these four addresses of yours (see explorer):

@OP import the private keys of the above addresses into your Bitcoin Cash Wallet to access your BCH/BCC.

than you need to find out on wich address your BTC were on August 1.
Then with that address priv. key you could claim your BCC

1GSELk9U8UPWxqdEGs9eMGJmc4sKsYYyRn
1paSTsppmYXYTGumzaYe8XfXcxkJoES7q

all have BCC balance.

A total of around 10 BCC

If you have Priv. key for them sweep them in coinomi.

Did it work?

Or don't you own those addresses?

Thanks for asking, yes Instacalm was a great help and I was able to sell my Btrash for 0.16BTC

Sorry to say that after this lovely interaction my Bitcointalk account was hacked and an impostor has taken over the account. He's put some scamcoin ICO in the signiture and made me seriously question my lazyness with my passwords.

Funny ups and downs, hopefully I can get admin to at least recognise and delete his posts, I'll feel terrible if people trust him because I was lazy with my passwords.
