What this tier means

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

How Gorganizer detects this

Phishing emails impersonating Canva claiming a Brand Kit subscription, Canva Pro plan, or Canva for Teams workspace has expired, been suspended, or had a billing failure, directing victims to a credential-harvesting lookalike page. Three-part detection: (1) Canva brand / Brand Kit / Pro / workspace language, (2) subscription-expired or payment-failed urgency, (3) sign-in / billing-update CTA with off-canva.com link. Proofpoint 2025-2026 documented a surge in Canva impersonation campaigns targeting design teams; Abnormal Security Q1 2026 confirmed active campaigns. High-value phishing target: Canva serves 150M+ users including enterprise design teams with Brand Kit access managing visual identity assets.

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.
