What it looks at#

Scans the subject field for:

  • a URL with a scheme (https://...) or a www. prefix;
  • an email address.

A bare domain does not fire: “Problem with mystore.com” and “Order from shop.se” are ordinary customer subjects. That is the difference from form.link_in_name.

location is subject, never the value.

Why it matters#

Link-drop bots put their URL wherever your form forwards or displays text, and subject lines are often copied straight into a notification email or a ticket title.

What to do#

Low severity. Read it with the message findings before acting; on its own it is a reason to look.
