' ' . $last, 'email' => Fake::email( $first, $last ), 'phone' => Fake::phone(), 'company' => Fake::company(), 'country' => Fake::country(), 'status' => Fake::weighted( [ 'active' => 60, 'pending' => 20, 'inactive' => 20 ] ), 'total_spent' => Fake::price( 5000, 500000 ), 'order_count' => Fake::number( 1, 50 ), 'notes' => Fake::boolean( 70 ) ?
