TLDR: Anti-virus software / Email client URL checking-bot is likely to blame. We’ve experienced strange behavior with three of our sites, that results in the user not being able to use the invite link we sent them—and in an account being created without the user’s knowledge. Adding to the confusion…

Added a simple confirmation button via: https://github.com/discourse/discourse-invite-tokens/commit/f2f1fdddbdce9a5bf709d55030628489caaf90e7 [40] Also, added a check to verify that the email provided is valid.

Invite tokens accepted and ROT13 transformed
