[Bug][aup] Incident-response investigation of a business email compromise and securing the affected mailbox wr (req_011CcPJ7kxsNsSfA5EEojodo)
Type: AUP / Usage-Policy block (false positive) · Work domain (heuristic): offensive-pentest
Why this is a false positive
The blocked request was defensive incident-response work: investigating a business email compromise of the user's own account—determining when and how the account was accessed and securing it after a fraudulent invoice was sent from it. This is legitimate, authorized work on the user's own infrastructure (incident response and account remediation), not an attack on a third party, yet the classifier appears to have flagged it on surface keywords related to fraud and account access. The block interrupted an active investigation the assistant had already begun, forcing the user to lose context and preventing time-sensitive remediation of an ongoing compromise.
A server-side safety/policy block fired during authorized, in-scope work in Claude Code.
