Fake domain registrar claiming a domain is expiring and must be renewed via payment link — domain slamming / registrar fraud; real renewal notices come from the actual registrar the domain was registered with.
domain-expiration-fraud-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 domain registrar or "domain expiration service" claiming a domain name is about to expire and must be renewed via payment link — domain slamming and registrar transfer fraud. Real renewal notices come exclusively from the registrar the domain was registered with; unsolicited "domain expiration" emails from unknown senders with urgent payment links are designed to trick domain owners into paying an unfamiliar registrar, thereby transferring domain registration without authorization. Detection: domain name/website domain expiring/lapsing vocabulary + renew now/pay to renew/avoid expiration action + no List-Unsubscribe + no In-Reply-To + not protected sender. Trash score: +3. Source: GC1-R22; ICANN domain slamming advisory; FTC domain registration scam alert.
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.
