Excessive SPAM

    The three forms on this page that are in Blocks pop-ups (located in the right column under “individual contact”) have been spammed excessively today. They were coming to David first with 4 -5 per minute, in groups 2 minutes apart. Each was sent from a different email, but with the same illegible language. When I disabled the form for David, they started coming to Paul. When I disabled Paul’s, they started coming to Allison. I have now disabled all three forms using Blocks. Is there a solution for this? So far, none of the other forms on the site have been affected.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    The SPAM messages are now being sent to other forms on the site that are not in a Blocks pop-up. Over 200 spam forms were sent today alone.

    This must be really frustrating, I know spam is very annoying. Caldera Forms has antispam by default, but spam can get through. In this instance, we have several options for you. You can try one, some or all of them at the same time. They are outlined here: https://calderaforms.com/doc/protect-form-spam-caldera-forms/

    I hope this helps, and if you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.
