Google Docs comment phish — real @docs.google.com sender + @-mention + phishing language or external non-Google URL
google-docs-comment-mention-lure
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 is sent from the real Google Docs comment notification address (comments-noreply@docs.google.com, drive-shares-noreply@google.com, or related Google infrastructure) — so all email auth passes — but the comment content contains phishing language (sign in to view, verify account, wire transfer required, callback number, seed phrase) OR a hyperlink pointing to a non-Google domain. Attackers create a Google account, add a comment on a document and @-mention the victim; Gmail delivers a real google-signed notification. CheckPoint, DarkReading, CyberSecurity Dive, and The Hacker News (Jan 2026) documented active campaigns abusing this trusted-sender vector.
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.
