Fake n8n shared workflow or webhook notification phishing lure

n8n-webhook-shared-doc-lure

What this tier means

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

How Gorganizer detects this

Fake n8n shared workflow / webhook-notification phishing lure. n8n (n8n.io) is a popular open-source and cloud workflow-automation tool used by 50K+ self-hosted instances and 100K+ cloud users. Attackers send emails impersonating the n8n notification system claiming "Someone shared an n8n workflow with you" or "Your n8n webhook has fired — review the execution now" and directing victims to a credential-harvesting page. The signal fires when: (1) body references the n8n brand AND (2) a shared-workflow / webhook-run / automation-notification narrative is present AND (3) a CTA to click / open / review / accept is present AND (4) sender is NOT from n8n.io. Real n8n workspace-sharing emails originate from @n8n.io with n8n.io DKIM. Source: GC1 R12 council #1; n8n abuse reports 2025; Cofense phishing intelligence Q1 2026.

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.
