Many have lost 100s of bitcoin because of the similar scam before, you shouldn't share your recovery phrase with anyone else. You can import your private key in electroncash to send out bitcoincash from your address but you should send out bitcoin from that address before importing it to electroncash.

A site asking for your recovery phrase of another site is clearly an indication this is a scam. Anybody entering their recover phrases on that site will have their wallets compromised and will lose all their BTC. There have been plenty of sites lately which are trying to pull this off so you need to be careful and make sure you're not giving out any information such as recovery phrase, passwords etc to sketchy websites.

There is a youtube video that shows you how you should put your Blockchain.info recovery phrase into their website and leave your legacy bitcoins on blockchain.info wallet because if you do not they will not be able to credit your BCC.
Don't do that, they will steal your bitcoins. Don't share private keys or recovery phrase to anyone!
Someone already post how he lost bitcoins because he similar followed youtube video claiming they will credit him BCC, but actually he lost his bitcoins: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/scammers-have-stolen-my-money-2068372

As they are two separate chains now, doing it with private keys on empty address on one or another chain should work, right?

No announcement from blockchain.info.
Typing your recovery phrase in such a manner on an unknown site?
Definitely a scam because you don't need to leave your bitcoins on blockchain.info when trying to claim your bitcoin cash. It's not even listed on the website of bitcoin cash so it's easy to say that the site you mentioned can't be trusted with anything. It's likely an attempt to steal your bitcoins.
