You don't have to post REAL data, just representative data. We'd be happy to help you if you would just make up a representative sample of the inputs and output with sensitive data (names, phone numbers, account numbers, etc.) replaced by made up replacements that use the same data formats.

You're already using sample@abc.com as the e-mail address to receive your messages. I assume that isn't the real intended destination. Do the same thing for the rest of your sample data.
