Great effort mate... This is good and informative, I have learnt a couple of things I didn't know about. I wish we could have more of such post than posts where people are fighting for forum power all in the name DT.

Thanks for appreciating, am truly flattered.

OP you did justice to this issue thanks for that. I notice you listed Electrum twice in wallet that supports sweeping and importing any reason for that or it's just a mistake?
My bad... It's a mistake. Guess sleep was taking a toll on me.
Thanks, corrected.

Thank you, Lucius, for pointing out the hard fork issue out. It should never be taken lightly. Though this particular incident was not a direct Private Key Phishing attack, We particularly saw a scenario where one member lost over $1M in crypto assets because of trying to claim for Bitcoin Diamond because he downloaded a malware into his computer.
