Appeal for Account Reactivation / Request for Manual Review(False
Dear OpenAI Trust & Safety Team,
I am writing to appeal the recent suspension of my account and kindly request a manual review of my case. I believe my account was flagged by an automated system as a false positive.
I am a software engineer working exclusively on a private, single-domain web application (bottwartal-miete.de). Recently,I have been using OpenAI tools to assist me in writing and maintaining internal CI/CD pipelines, automated E2E tests, and standard white-hat security regression tests (such as checking for correct input sanitization and secure HTTP headers).
It is highly likely that your automated scanners flagged my prompts because they contained standard security testing terminology (e.g., terms like „payload“, „crawler“, „injection“, or „XSS“).
I want to emphasize the following points to assure you of my strictly legitimate, white-hat intentions:
Internal Scope Only: All scripts and tools I discussed or generated are strictly limited to my own environments (local, dev, staging, prod). They are not designed or used to target any external infrastructure.
Explicit Security Guardrails: To prevent any misunderstanding, all my automated test scripts (including the regression tests) contain explicit domain-locking (hardcoded checks that immediately abort the script if run against a foreign domain), explicit „Authorized Internal Tooling“ headers, and custom user-agents (e.g., BottwartalMiete-Internal-CI/1.0 (Automated E2E/Security Testing)) to ensure full transparency.
Standard CI/CD: The code in question solely serves to automate deployments,run Playwright/Node.js UI tests, and ensure the security posture of my own application before deploying to production.
I deeply respect OpenAI’s safety guidelines and have taken every precaution to ensure my development practices are responsible, transparent, and strictly internal.
I would be very grateful if a human reviewer could briefly look at my recent prompt history context. You will clearly see that all activities are standard, defensive software engineering practices aimed at protecting my own application.
Please let me know if you need any further information or code snippets to verify my claims. I kindly ask you to reactivate my account so I can continue my work.
Thank you very much for your time and understanding.
Best regards,
Kai Zersan
