Fake crypto exchange KYC re-verification requiring passport or government ID upload via a non-official domain — impersonating Coinbase / Binance / Kraken / Gemini.
crypto-exchange-kyc-reverification-phish
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 KYC re-verification from Coinbase, Binance, Kraken, or Gemini requiring passport or government ID upload via a non-official domain. Real KYC re-verification is conducted through the exchange's authenticated app or website — NEVER via cold inbound email link demanding document upload. Account restricted + ID upload required from a non-official sender is a credential-harvest / document-theft lure. Detection: KYC/identity verification vocabulary + document upload required/account restricted action + exchange brand reference + sender NOT on official exchange domain allowlist (coinbase.com, binance.com, kraken.com, gemini.com) + no In-Reply-To + no List-Unsubscribe. Trash score: +4. Source: GC1-R18; FBI crypto exchange phishing advisory 2025; Chainalysis exchange impersonation report.
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.
