Essay

Run the crackme in smartcheck and look at the algo. This protection convertes each char to the number (ASCII (HEX)) and the algolooks like this.

Is the first char are A
A = 65
65 * 12345 = 691320
691320 XOR 15 = 802422

and so on..
and then it are continuing, the serial are the algo of the last charter.

So that's why

Name = AAA
Serial = 802422
