Fake PayPal payment dispute / account limitation phish
fake-paypal-payment-dispute-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
Email impersonating PayPal with a fabricated unauthorized-transaction alert, account limitation notice, case/dispute notification, or invoice — driving the recipient to "verify identity," provide billing details, call a scammer phone number, or click through to a credential-harvesting page. PayPal is perennially in the top 3 most-phished payment brands globally. APWG 2024: PayPal impersonation has ranked in the top 3 most-phished brands for 12 consecutive years; payment and financial credential phishing accounts for 34% of all phishing attacks.
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 2,143+ 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.
