Fake money mule job offer — receive payments/packages to personal bank account + forward/wire abroad + keep % commission + reshipping coordinator

fake-money-mule-job-offer-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

Email offering a "work from home" job as a "payment processing representative," "financial agent," "reshipping coordinator," or "money transfer agent" — where the job consists of receiving payments or packages to the recipient's personal bank account or home address, then forwarding the money (via Western Union, MoneyGram, or wire transfer) to "overseas partners" or reshipping packages internationally, while keeping a percentage commission (10–15%). This is money laundering recruitment: the "payments" are proceeds from other fraud (romance scams, check fraud, online shopping fraud), and the "coordinator" is a money mule who faces federal criminal charges even if they didn't know the source of funds. FBI 2024: money mule recruitment via fake job offers is the primary mechanism for moving $1B+ in fraud proceeds annually; most victims discover their role when their bank account is frozen and law enforcement arrives.

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.
