What this tier means
High-confidence threat indicator — phishing, impersonation, BEC, or scam pattern. Strong contributor to the trash decision.
How Gorganizer detects this
Fake SSA benefit verification requiring my Social Security login re-authentication via a non-ssa.gov link — enables benefits diversion and SSA account takeover. The SSA NEVER emails links for benefit verification, direct deposit updates, or my Social Security re-authentication — all SSA transactions require secure login at ssa.gov. A non-.gov sender claiming SSA verification with a clickable link is high-confidence phishing that can redirect benefits payments. Detection: social security/SSA/benefit verification vocabulary + verify benefits/direct deposit update/re-authenticate action + off-brand href (not .gov) + sender NOT on ssa.gov/.gov + no In-Reply-To + no List-Unsubscribe. Trash score: +5. Source: GC1-R18; SSA Office of Inspector General phishing advisory 2025; FTC SSA impostor scam report.
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.
