Hi Alex,
Thanks for joining on Tuesday. I have put the notes in the shared folder under Planning, and the next meeting is on the 6th at ten.

Thanks, Sam

Technical detailsIllustrative view of Jatzo in Outlook. The emails and the people in them are invented, and every address is under .example. The score, the wording and the reasons are what Jatzo really returns for each message.
WHAT TO TRY
Three things worth doing while you are here.
- Compare the two invoices. The supplier invoice and the ordinary meeting notes arrive looking equally routine. Open each and see which parts of the score they differ on.
- Read the reason, not just the number. Every score has a short reason above it and the full evidence behind Technical details. The number is the summary, not the argument.
- Look at what could not be checked. Jatzo says what it could not establish as plainly as what it found. A low score is not a promise that a message is safe.
THE SAME ANSWER, ON THE WEBSITE
Every score tells a story.
The pane in the inbox and the result on the website are two views of one answer. Here are three of the same messages, worded the way the website words them.

What it wantsGet you to send money or change payment details
Top reasons for this score
Select a reason to see where it is in the email.
ObservedThe message changes where money should be paid and also routes replies to another domain, steers you away from a phone call, or presses you to stop using the old account.
Why it mattersA bank change with replies routed elsewhere or a phone call discouraged is how a hijacked mailbox diverts money.
ObservedSupplied headers report DMARC failure.
Why it mattersThe domain in the From line did not authorise this message.
ObservedThe message appears to change supplier, beneficiary or remittance details.
Why it mattersA change to supplier bank details is the main step in invoice fraud.
ObservedAvailable headers report an SPF failure or soft failure.
Why it mattersThe server that sent this is not one the domain allows to send its mail.
ObservedFrom uses pellowmere-billing.example, while Reply-To uses pellowmere-accounts.example.
Why it mattersYour reply would go to a different domain from the one you see.
ObservedA result in this message reports DKIM=none, but Jatzo could not verify it.
Why it mattersWithout a signature nothing shows the message is unaltered or really from this domain.
ObservedThe message combines invoice, statement or remittance language with payment pressure and an attachment or destination.
Why it mattersPressure to pay an invoice quickly is how payment fraud gets past normal checks.
Recommended action
Do not send money or change payment details from this email alone. Verify the request using a trusted contact method you already have.

Select a reason to see where it is in the email.
ObservedThe display identity invokes Microsoft, but the From address uses micros0ft-account.example.
Why it mattersA known brand's name from a domain it does not use, with signs of disguise, is impersonation.
ObservedThe message poses as a well known organisation from a domain that organisation does not use, and warns about your account: a withdrawal, a change to your details or a sign-in from somewhere new.
Why it mattersA fake warning about your account from a brand that did not send it is how account takeover starts.
ObservedThe message uses an unusual-login, password, mailbox or MFA warning to prompt an account action.
Why it mattersAlarm about your account is used to rush you into signing in on a copied page.
ObservedThe email threatens account closure, legal action or another consequence.
Why it mattersThreats of closure or legal action are used to rush a decision.

ObservedA result in this message reports DMARC=none, but Jatzo could not verify it.

ObservedThe message uses urgency or pressure to encourage immediate action.
Why it mattersTime pressure is used to stop people checking before they act.
ObservedThe message mentions authentication information in the context of an action or request.
Why it mattersTalk of passwords or sign-in beside a request is how credential theft starts.
Observedmicros0ft-account.example/verify: URL contains a sensitive action keyword; Destination shares the sender's registered domain (micros0ft-account.example); Domain resembles Microsoft (microsoft.com) but is a different registered domain
Why it mattersSomething about the link is unusual enough to check before clicking.
Recommended action
Do not use the supplied sign-in path. Open the real service independently and check your account there.

The available checks did not find significant phishing indicators. This does not guarantee the email is safe.
What was checked
Select a line to see where it is in the email.
Recommended action
Treat unexpected links, attachments and requests cautiously and verify the sender independently before acting.
A low score is not a guarantee that an email is safe. Automated analysis can be wrong, and missing evidence is not proof of safety, so verify important requests through a route you trust.
Find what is wrong.
Tap anything in this email that looks suspicious. Then see what Jatzo found, including what nobody can see in an inbox.
