ThreatPhishing & impersonation

Fake bank alert claiming an outgoing wire transfer requires email-link verification before processing — real banks authenticate wire transfers exclusively through secure portals, never email CTAs.

What this tier means

High-confidence threat indicator — phishing, impersonation, BEC, or scam pattern. Strong contributor to the trash decision.

How Gorganizer detects this

Fake bank alert claiming an outgoing wire or SWIFT transfer requires email-link verification or authorization before it can be processed — credential harvesting or unauthorized-transaction-approval attack. Real banks authenticate all wire authorizations through 2FA-protected online portals or branch confirmation; they never use email CTAs to approve outgoing wires. Attackers use urgency around a large transfer to harvest login credentials or get the victim to "cancel" a transfer they initiated. Detection: wire transfer/outgoing wire/SWIFT transfer vocabulary + verify/authorize/approve/confirm transfer action + no List-Unsubscribe + no In-Reply-To + not protected sender. Trash score: +5. Source: GC1-R21; FBI IC3 BEC wire fraud advisory 2025; FinCEN wire fraud guidance.

False-positive guard

Every signal in Gorganizer feeds a multi-module score — never a sole verdict. This is a threat-tier signal — it adds a strong contribution to the trash score. The full pipeline still requires convergence across multiple modules + a margin over the safety floor before deletion happens, and Gmail's trash (30-day recovery) is always used — never permanent delete.

About the scoring engine

Gorganizer's scoring engine emits over 1,800 signals across six modules — headers, sender, subject, body, attachments, and structural metadata. Every email is scored by every module independently; the final verdict requires multiple modules to agree and the trash score to beat the safety floor by a margin.

Sacred safety guards — never delete starred emails, replies, calendar invites, receipts/invoices, or attachments — apply unconditionally regardless of any signal.
