It reads bank details the way Indian invoices carry them — IFSC and account number, UPI IDs, IBAN and SWIFT — in English, Hindi or Hinglish.

Private by design

The message is read in your browser. Bank details are never stored: GINbox keeps only a keyed fingerprint per sender, enough to notice a change and impossible to read back. Each mailbox sees only its own history.

Questions

What is business email compromise?

A message that asks for money, or says a bank account has changed, from someone pretending to be a supplier, a colleague or the boss. It usually passes spam filters because it is short, polite and sent from a real-looking address.

Does GINbox read my mail to do this?

The message is checked inside your own browser. Our server is asked only facts about the sender — do you know them, do they look like a domain you deal with, did they give different bank details before — and it never stores bank details, only fingerprints it cannot read back.

Will it warn on every invoice?

No. It stays quiet for mail that is not about money and for a known supplier’s usual invoice. A warning that appears on every invoice would be ignored, so it speaks only when something is off.

Does it stop the payment?

No — GINbox never touches your bank. It tells you what looks wrong and what to do: call the person on a number you already have, not one in the message, and confirm the bank details.
