How Gorganizer detects this
Fake "your Marriott Bonvoy / Hilton Honors / World of Hyatt / IHG One Rewards / Accor ALL / Wyndham Rewards / Choice Privileges / Best Western Rewards / Radisson Rewards points are expiring in 48 hours — reinstate now or forfeit permanently" email targeting hotel loyalty members. Program reach is 430M+ aggregate enrolled members: Marriott Bonvoy 200M+ (largest hotel program), Hilton Honors 180M+, World of Hyatt 50M+, IHG One Rewards 100M+ (Holiday Inn + Crowne Plaza + InterContinental), Accor Live Limitless (ALL) 90M+, Wyndham Rewards 100M+. Points are valued at $0.5-1.0 per 100; average account balance 50K-200K points ($250-2,000); high-status members hold $5-20K in points. Attack shape is a two-click trap: "reinstate points" opens a credential harvester for the hotel account login plus MFA; post-compromise the attacker transfers points to an attacker-controlled account (most programs allow points-transfer to friends/family within the same program), books hotel rooms on a stranger's behalf and resells the reservation, redeems points for gift cards (Marriott Bonvoy → Amazon, Hilton Honors → Best Buy), or siphons points via the Bonvoy→airline-miles convert feature (Marriott → Delta/United/AA 3:1 ratio). On dark-market account-share marketplaces, hotel points sell at 20-40% face value ($0.10-$0.40 per 100 points). Lures convert heavily because real expiration emails exist (programs expire points after 18-24 months of inactivity), hotel rewards owners send routine balance, tier, and expiration emails users have trained mental models for, loss aversion is strong at $250-20K account value, and point redemption bypasses SSN-level KYC so account takeover IS the complete attack with no downstream block.

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.
