# Wire Instruction Verification Call Log

## Inputs
Wire instructions, the escrow or title contact of record, the known phone number from prior signed documents and the send deadline.

## Workflow
1. Confirm the phone number used for verification came from earlier signed documents, not from the wire email itself.
2. Log the call: number dialed, person reached, instructions confirmed and time.
3. Flag any instruction change received by email alone.
4. Return the log without sending funds or confirming receipt.

## Output contract
Instruction set | source | number origin | call time | confirmed with | change flagged | reviewer

## Fictional acceptance test
Fictional file: new instructions arrived by email Tuesday; verification used the number printed in that email, not the number from the signed engagement letter. Flag the number origin; funds stay on hold.

## Review gates
Re-check that a changed account number always triggers verification through the original contact. Email-only changes are never accepted.
