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 Cursor AI editor claiming a Pro or Business subscription has expired or a payment has failed, directing victims to a fake renewal page harvesting login credentials and payment card data. Three-part detection: (1) Cursor AI / Pro / Business / Teams subscription language, (2) subscription-expired or billing-failed urgency, (3) renew / restore / billing-update CTA with off-cursor.com or off-cursor.sh link. Abnormal Security 2025-2026 documented AI developer tool impersonation campaigns; active campaigns targeting developers confirmed. Cursor's rapid adoption (millions of developer users) makes it an attractive impersonation target, especially given developers' high likelihood of having paid subscriptions linked to corporate accounts.

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.
