- Credit Card Number – /\b(1800|2131|30[0-5]\d|3[4-7]\d{2}|4\d{3}|5[0-5]\d{2}|6011|6[2357]\d{2})[- ]?(\d{4}[- ]?\d{4}[- ]?\d{4}|\d{6}[- ]?\d{5})\b/gi
- Homophobic language used – (\W|)([Tt]ranny)|([Dd]yke)|(poof)|(poofter)|(fag)|(faggot)|(queer)|(lesbo)|(bugger)|(girlyboy)|(nancyboy)|(rent boy).*?(\W$)
