 * A few years ago, I purchased Wordfence after my Woocommerce site had a few thousand
   card tested overnight. Everything was fine until today when I had a few hundred
   cards tested in 20 minutes. I immediately de-activated the credit card checkout
   and I disabled “allow guest checkout” and upped the ReCaptcha from .5 to .6. 
   I waited about 30 minutes and re-enabled credit card checkout and the cc testing
   started again. I guess I “allow guest checkout” had no effect.
 * I disabled cc checkout. What other Wordfence settings can I use to prevent this?
   Or am I under attack for as long as it takes?
 * Thank you.
