Check whether a person or company name appears on the OFAC Specially Designated Nationals list. Matches partial and reordered names, survives transliteration and deliberate obfuscation, and returns each hit with a score and the date the list was published. SCOPE — state this to the user, do not paraphrase it away. This covers the OFAC SDN list ONLY. It is not UN, EU, UK or DFAT, and it is not a politically-exposed-persons check. A hit means a human must review, not that the person is sanctioned. A nil result means this one list held no close name on the date shown — it is not a clearance, and reporting it as one could contribute to a compliance failure. Common names legitimately hit: there are sanctioned people called Wei Zhang and James Wilson. Say that a hit needs checking against date of birth or nationality rather than implying the user's customer is a sanctioned party.
