 * I have integrated the new v3 from v2, for a year I never had problem with v2.
   With this new v3 installed, I got 5 spam in a day. I dont think it is working
   as it should. Please fix.

 * Since updating to v5.1, I am now forced to use reCAPTCHA v3.
 * I am getting more spam than I was before
 * Google are now inserting an ad into EVERY SINGLE PAGE ON MY SITE!!!
 * Not just the pages with a form
 * EVERY SINGLE PAGE!!!
 * Looking for a good replacement for Contact Form 7 – any suggestions?

 * Same here.
    If the issue is not solved within next few hours I will have no choice
   but remove this plugin completely.

 * It’s a free plugin [@tsso0120](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tsso0120/)–
   revert back to 5.0.5 instead of making vague threats about switching. We all 
   know it’s more work than it’s worth to switch out tons of forms to another plugin.

 * Same here.
 * I regenerated new keys for the new version, deleted the widget as it’s no longer
   needed, and I see Russians hammering away at my contact form (at least 3 or 4
   per day,) whereas I never used to get any of these.

 * [@koppit](https://wordpress.org/support/users/koppit/) I could of course to rollback
   but in this case it would be constantly prompting me to update and eventually
   I will accidentally update it together with other plugins.
 * I switched to alternative. it took me about 15 min to write it. At least now 
   I am sure that there is no malware or ad codes in it.

 * Me 2, TONS of spam, not 3 or 6, but 20-30 so far “just today”, on 2 of my sites,
   since moving to v3. Definitely wont be taking my 30+ sites to v3 until this is
   fixed… Google pulling a Gargantuan pluck up!
