|
|
Good morning: I have two contact forms on my page, and when I test them myself, they appear to be working. Nevertheless, I keep getting odd responses from the new one. Looks like they're trying to get me to visit some webpage (for bad purposes, no doubt). And further, the Statcounter I use is not recording them having visited that page, so I'm not sure how they're intercepting (?) the form.
Here is an example:
From: albertaknouse@moose-mail.com
Subject: Leave a Comment:
Date: 10/08/2015 at 09:13 PM (GMT -6) from 155.94.194.71
Article(s): I visited many websites however the audio quality for audio songs present
at this site is genuinely superb.
Name: Alberta
Website: http://yourdomain.com
Comment: I visited many websites however the audio quality for audio songs present at this site is genuinely superb.
*************
Note that they are not using the contact form as intended, i.e., to comment on the articles in the magazine. Not sure what's going on.
Your help appreciated! |

Did I post this in the wrong forum? I continue to get these weird messages and the poster does not appear to have visited that page.
Disappointed that there are no replies. |

They are SPAM messages. You should turn on the CAPTCHA feature under the Form Security portion of the control panel which will help prevent this.
