Gmail flagged the following email as dangerous.
Okay. Slaughter is a dangerous name, I admit that, and Ebenezer is the the name of a notorious villain, sure. But you cannot judge someone by their name. You have to judge their parents by that!
If this e-mail had come from the mother of Ebenezer, then yeah Google, you have a point. She either glories in villainy, or..., or maybe in redemption! Because, spoiler alert, Ebenezer finds redemption.
And sure, if the email had come from the father of Slaughter, then look out, he is very likely a murderer. Oh, unless Slaughter is his surname. Nobody has a choice about that. My dad never siggered anyone. And nobody ever expected that he would. I don't think I would even know how to sigger someone. Though I guarantee you, I have the stomach for it.
Read the e-mail on its merits, Google. Mr. Slaughter addresses me as `Dear'. Would a murderer do that? Not likely. And certainly not when they are looking to do a bit of murdering. They would call me 'You there!' or 'Little Gavin.'
Mr. Slaughter is looking for an honest transparent person to do business with. And that is me alright. "You found him, Mr. Slaughter!"
Sure murderers like honest people for their murdering, but not for their business. They want other villains for business. Honour among thieves and all that. Honour among murderers is also a thing. I've seen it in movies.
If Mr. Slaughter was looking for someone to murder, he wouldn't call it a 'transaction that will benefit both of us'. Murder would benefit only one of us. Perhaps then he would not be completely transparent on this fact, perhaps he would not say 'a transaction that will benefit me but not you' but he would probably be oblique with something like 'a beneficial transaction'.
No Google. If you could just look past someone's name, I'm sure you would find all sorts of emails that are beneficial to everyone involved.
