Fake check employment scam
fake-check-equipment-employment-scam
What this tier means
High-confidence threat indicator — phishing, impersonation, BEC, or scam pattern. Strong contributor to the trash decision.
How Gorganizer detects this
Employment scam where attacker "hires" the victim, promises to send a cheque or bank deposit, then instructs them to purchase equipment or supplies and wire the remainder to a "supplier" or "vendor coordinator" — the cheque bounces days later after the victim has already sent the wire; FTC 2025 reports $2.2B annual losses from fake-check scams, with the employment variant being the leading delivery vector (IC3 2025).
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.
