1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, from a device at a computer-implemented server device, a request comprising an identifier proposed for a potential account holder;
determining, at the computer-implemented server device, whether the identifier is available for use with a new account;
communicating, from the computer-implemented server device, a response to the device indicating whether the identifier is available for use with the new account, wherein the response comprises an image that contains a visually obfuscated representation of an alphanumeric message that indicates either a success or a failure; and
presenting the response at the device.

Abstract
This disclosure relates to a system and related operating methods. A computer-implemented server device receives a request from a device that includes an identifier proposed for a potential account holder. The computer-implemented server device determines whether the identifier is available for use with a new account, and communicates a response to the device that indicates whether the identifier is available for use with the new account. The response is presented at the device and includes an image that contains a visually obfuscated representation of an alphanumeric message that indicates either a success or a failure.

10. A computer-implemented system, comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory, wherein the memory comprises computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the computer-implemented system to; receive, from a device, a request comprising an identifier proposed for a potential account holder; determining whether the identifier is available for use with a new account; generate a response to be communicated to and presented at the device, wherein the response indicates whether the identifier is available for use with the new account, wherein the response comprises an image that contains a visually obfuscated representation of an alphanumeric message that indicates either a success or a failure. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
