Indicators
Reasoning
In isolation, reputation management payments are not trafficking indicators. However, when contextualized within a concealment operation and combined with subsequent financial irregularities (undisclosed recipients, resistance to accounting), they meet threshold for concealment-associated financial signaling. Score reflects the thread-level prior; confidence is moderate due to legitimate business interpretation.
