Sometimes accounts are created by someone other than the owner of an email address. In these cases, a User is created, but the account is never confirmed. If someone has been in this scenario for more than a month, we should remove the record in order to ensure the owner of the email is not contacted.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Actually could this happen?
- User creates account long ago that has gems
- User recently changes email within 30 days but never confirmed it
- We delete their account

jenshenny’s stale review
The query is too broad and would remove users with legitimate ownerships.
