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 Wise (formerly TransferWise) claiming an international transfer requires verification, has been held, or an account is restricted, directing victims to a fake portal harvesting Wise login credentials and payment card details. Three-part detection: (1) Wise / TransferWise transfer / account / payment language, (2) transfer-held / account-restricted / verification-required urgency, (3) verify / authorize / sign-in CTA with off-wise.com link. FCA and FinCEN 2025-2026 advisories documented Wise impersonation targeting international payment users; active campaigns confirmed. High-value phishing target: Wise processes $12B+ monthly cross-border transfers for individuals and businesses.
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.
