hacked form

    My version is actually 3.84 but this option does not exist in the dropdown menu.

    Anyway, I am testing the free version of the plugin on several sites before I purchase the pro version. I am already receiving bot spam via the contact form. How feasible is for someone to script a hack and send spam to address other than what I specified in the plugin settings? It’d suck to get blacklisted before I install the version with Captcha.

    Hi Iridanovic,

    It is not entirely clear to us, which email do you receive spam to? Is it the one specified in the plugin settings?

    In case spam comes from a contact form, you can install captcha for security. For instance, we have Captcha plugin compatible with our contact form:

    – http://bestwebsoft.com/products/captcha/
    – http://bestwebsoft.com/products/google-captcha/

    Or do you receive spam from a contact form to another address, not the one entered on the plugin settings page?

    Also, could you please specify, what do you mean by “to script a hack and send spam to address other than what I specified in the plugin settings?”
