WarningScams & fraud

Fake social media account suspension appeal — impersonates Meta, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, or X/Twitter with a policy-violation / suspension narrative + fake appeals-portal CTA at a non-official host. CISA/Meta/TikTok 2025-2026; Proofpoint Q1 2026.

What this tier means

Warning signal — bulk / marketing / mild spam. Contributes to the trash score but is not by itself sufficient.

How Gorganizer detects this

Phishing emails impersonating Meta, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, X/Twitter, or Snapchat claiming the recipient's account was suspended, disabled, or violated community guidelines, directing them to a fake "appeals portal" to recover access — harvesting credentials. Three-part detection: (1) social platform brand, (2) account suspension / violation language, (3) appeal / dispute CTA with off-platform host. CISA March 2026; Meta Transparency Report Q1 2026; TikTok Trust & Safety Q1 2026; Proofpoint Q1 2026 documented social-media-appeal phish as one of the top 5 consumer phishing vectors. Distinct from brand-impersonation signals targeting login — specifically targets the account-recovery / appeal flow.

False-positive guard

Every signal in Gorganizer feeds a multi-module score — never a sole verdict. This is a warning-tier signal — bulk / marketing / mild spam. It contributes to the trash score but never triggers deletion on its own. Gorganizer requires multiple signals + a margin over the safety floor before any email is moved to trash.

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.
