Stop Spam Bots - Add reCaptcha field to Surveys, Contact Forms, Opt-in forms.
in progress
Optimise and Grow Online
Clients are experiencing spam bot submissions on their forms and surveys. This is costing a lot in admin time to clean up daily. And it's blowing out their contact records and increasing their Simplero plan unnecessarily.
Other uses have reported similar attacks on order forms.
There needs to be a solution to protect these forms from such attacks.
Recaptcha integration would be a great option.
We need something to stop this.

Thanks. And besides opt-in Email forms, I'd love to see this also added to Affiliate Sign Up forms.

What was completed? All of my SPAM exactly as imaged above are coming in through fake product buys with abandoned carts. Do I need to add in as a feature request? We need a way of not having bot abandoned carts taking up our contacts. Thought this thread was the eventual fix.

That’s great news. Thanks! What about opt-in forms? II manually delete about 20 to 50 spam subscribers daily.

We've integrated Altcha in Surveys. If we see a remarkable improvement, Order forms will be next.

Ryan Sullivan Verification happens automatically without needing you to complete any puzzles :)
If verification fails (we detect you are a possible bot) then it will show a checkbox to confirm you are not a robot.

Holy moly! Overnight I just started getting a ton of spam purchases for manual payment modes, they look just like your screenshot, also mostly from Zimbabwe.
I have an integration set up with the manual payment where it creates an invoice in Quickbooks, so now these spam orders are getting added to my Quickbooks accounting software as customer accounts! And I also have to delete the invoices created there.

I'm having spam on order forms. They get added to my list because of the automated 'abandoned cart' email.

Holy cow. I'm getting over 100 per day....
