What it looks at#

Send the name field as name. The check fires when it contains a URL or a host.tld domain (www.cheap-pills.com), an email address, or a Latin-script word with seven or more consonants in a row (asdfghjkl) or no vowels at all from five letters up.

It is built to leave real names alone. Words in non-Latin scripts (王伟, 山田太郎, Иван, يوسف) are never examined. Short or consonant-heavy real names pass: Ng, Nguyễn, Sjögren, Krzysztof Wojciechowski, Szczepański, Mkhize, O’Brien, Jean-Luc, Mohammed bin Salman. A name typed as john.doe reads as a domain and fires.

Why it matters#

Spam signups use the name field to carry links, and lazy bots fill it with keyboard mashing.

What to do#

Low severity, and a heuristic: treat it as one weak signal among several. The finding message never repeats the name.
