Social engineering levers

LeverTellControl
AuthorityRequest leans on a title (CEO, CFO, IT, regulator) instead of the process.Verify via a number you already hold; authority never replaces approval.
UrgencyDeadline in minutes or hours; "before close of business".Mandatory cooling-off for payments and access changes.
Secrecy / embargo"Keep this between us", "under NDA", "don't loop in finance".Any secrecy request is an automatic escalation trigger.
IsolationMoves you off normal channels: personal WhatsApp, new phone number.Business decisions only on logged corporate channels.
Process bypassAsks to skip callback, dual approval or ticketing "just this once".Controls cannot be waived by the requester.
Fear of lossAccount suspension, lost deal, legal penalty.Check status directly in the real portal, never via the link.
FamiliarityReuses a real thread, vendor name, or cloned voice.Familiar sender + changed bank details = verify out of band.
