Gift-card demand — buy gift cards + send codes (CEO fraud / authority-pressure scam)

gift-card-demand

What this tier means

High-confidence threat indicator — phishing, impersonation, BEC, or scam pattern. Strong contributor to the trash decision.

How Gorganizer detects this

Body contains both a gift-card purchase instruction ("please buy $500 in Google Play cards") AND a code-extraction instruction ("scratch the back and send me the codes", "email me the redemption codes"). The two-part script of CEO fraud, boss impersonation, and authority-pressure scams. Legitimate communication never asks you to buy gift cards for anyone.

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.
