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

Fake earnest money deposit wire instructions from an unknown sender in a real estate transaction — wire-fraud BEC variant specifically targeting homebuyers' earnest money. "New/updated wire instructions for your earnest money deposit — please wire closing funds to a different account than previously established." SACRED: real wire instruction documents and earnest money communications are protected by safety-keywords.ts ('wire instructions', 'earnest money'). This signal fires on the cold-inbound variant: earnest money + new wire instructions + same-day/urgent framing + no In-Reply-To context (no prior thread). Real closing professionals never send wire-instruction changes via cold inbound email — the FBI reports $446M lost annually to real estate wire fraud. Detection: earnest money + wire instruction vocabulary + urgency/same-day language + no In-Reply-To + no List-Unsubscribe.

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.
