Guys, help pls. How do i aquire my BCC now ? I did this:

1. Copied my private key of main btc wallet.
2. Downloaded Electrum Cash wallet
3. Waited for fork to happen, then transfered all my btc to safe address.
4. Tried import private key from step 1 into Electurm Cash but failed "No input found"
5. Then i tried entering seed of main btc wallet into Electrum Cash and got into wallet, but balance after my transfer at step 3 is zero bcc.

?!??!?

1. Your client sends private keys to server.
2. You wait
3. You send money
4. You cash out bcc
5. Now you see your real btc is gone via step 1.

You just did what no user should ever do.
Enter private key into third party client.

Read more carefully what i wrote, bro. You misunderstood me. I entered a private key of an empty wallet(after sending my btc's to safe address) into a third party client.

I do have access to my btc's with new unknown to a third party address. I just didnt get my bcc's

.. odd... you did exactly what I did and I got my BCC ... I'm guessing you transferred them before the blockchain snapshot occurred, try doing it again with your new private key... I use electrum, just sent all my coins to poloniex for "safety" ... then opened electrum cash ... didn't even need to enter my private key, it pulled my walled straight from the BTC electrum wallet, and my BCC was automatically there while my BTC was safely on poloniex

Did anybody tried this and succeed?
