Oh, I see the problem:

   http_port 127.0.0.1:3128 intercept ...

  (which also means you lack a firewall rule preventing external 
software like squidclient from sending traffic directly to your 
intercept port.)


Please **do not** use port 3128 to receive intercepted traffic.


I recommend changing your main port to this:

    http_port 3128 ssl-bump ....

and receiving the intercepted traffic on:

   http_port 3129 intercept ssl-bump ...


and check your firewall has all the rules listed at 
<https://wiki.squid-cache.org/ConfigExamples/Intercept/LinuxRedirect>.
One to note in particular is the "mangle" table rule.


Cheers
Amos
