broker-margin-call-phish
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 brokerage margin call / maintenance requirement demanding immediate wire transfer or account liquidation — impersonating Fidelity, Schwab, TD Ameritrade, IBKR, or E*TRADE. SACRED: 'margin call' added to safety-keywords.ts to protect real brokerage alerts. Real margin calls are delivered through authenticated brokerage portals and app notifications — NEVER via cold inbound email with a wire transfer link. Detection: margin call/maintenance requirement vocabulary + immediate deposit/liquidation threat + broker brand reference + sender NOT on official brokerage domain allowlist (fidelity.com, schwab.com, tdameritrade.com, ibkr.com, etrade.com) + no In-Reply-To + no List-Unsubscribe. Trash score: +5. Source: GC1-R18; FINRA investor alert 2025; FBI margin call wire fraud advisory.
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.
