Later they released as statement:
...The person who distributes the Electron Cash binaries has decided to
remain anonymous, and uses the fake name "Jonald Fyookball" in order
to sign Electron Cash binaries. Thus, if these binaries contain code
that is designed to steal your bitcoins, the author of the theft will
be anonymous and walk away safely with your funds...

Contingency Plan
If you're an Electrum user, here's how to do it
- Wait until Bitcoin Cash Forked - give it some blocks at least.
- Move your Bitcoin to an new Electrum Wallet
2nd PC - no Electrum installed (best option)
- Download and Install: http://www.electroncash.org/
- Import your old Electrum Seed Words to claim BCH
DUMP?
- HitBTC confirmed BCH Trading for example.
