 * Hi,
 * I’ve been getting random emails ending in @data-backup-store.com signing up to
   my mailing list. On my mail chimp dashboard this is what it says.
 * MYWEBSITE = my actual website URL
 * p0tt_mc4wp_3b87b250_MYWEBSITE.com@data-backup-store . com
 * What are these? why are they subscribing? Is it spam, how do i prevent it?
 * Its all through my api for home page sign up form.

 * Likely spam bots. The hcaptcha plugin has an integration with MC4WP, you can 
   use that or turn on double opt-in to prevent them from signing up. 
   Hope that
   helps. If you have any questions, please let me know!
