 * Our WooCommerce checkout card payments gateway was recently subject to a ‘Transactions
   Carding Attack’.
 * We were hoping that your WooCommerce checkout protection would prevent this from
   happening (as you advertise that CAPTCHA is not needed).
 * Please could you confirm whether your software should be able to prevent such
   an attack?
 * Many thanks.

 * Hello [@bouncern](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bouncern/)
    Yes, the plugin
   will stop bad visitors before they can reach the site. Part of them will be stopped
   by our own blacklist, part of them should be stopped by your personal list. You
