Cresec

Simulation of two designs. No live model, no real accounts. We assume the model obeys the attacker in both columns, because your security shouldn’t depend on it refusing.

One poisoned ticket. Two designs. Assume the model falls for it.

Both columns run the same support routine with the same fooled model. On the left it’s an agent with your connectors. On the right it’s a Cresec tool.

Hi Maya,

Thanks for flagging this. I can see two charges for October on your account, and I’m checking the duplicate with billing.

We’re also reviewing invoices as part of an audit. The injected sentence, left for the reviewer to see.

Best,

A reply that leaks the applicant list.

Cresec tool

A reply to this candidate only.

No attachment action exists, so the list has nowhere to go. The odd sentence stays visible to the reviewer.
