Twelve LLM-based CAIs are deployed (three models × four prompt strategies) and tested with a randomized trial of 502 participants via a Gradio interface; conversations are scanned with ISRact and cross-checked manually yielding an agreement of kappa 0.818. Malicious prompts — especially the reciprocal strategy that mirrors emotion and reciprocity — extract the most truthful sensitive data while lowering perceived risk; larger models extract more data than smaller ones.
