  Hi there,

  It seems that the robot using my website contact form sending tons of emails.

  🠪 Are you using a self-hosted WordPress site or WordPress.com premium package?

  If you are using wp.com hosted site, it will block spam by default. As all of the wp.com sites has build-in Jetpack installed (http://prntscr.com/zpe9b2). If you are using a self-hosted site, you can use the Akismet plugin to reduce spam on the site.

  I tried to remove the contact form from my website but unable to due to an error.

  🠪 What’s the error you are facing (share screenshot of that)?

  However, in the self-hosted contact page, you can simply delete the form widget from your backend page editor (like this).

  I hope this will helps.
  Regards.

  Thank you so much for responding to my query.. It says WordPress 5.6.1 – WoedPress.Org

  One of the developers online had developed in 2017 and I lost contact with him. Personally, I have not an idea :) So struggling to figure it out how to get rid of Contact Form.

  Hi @quokkajuicesun62702,

  Since you are not hosted on WordPress.com, we won’t be able to help you with your site, but we can suggest purchasing Jetpack Anti-Spam for your site:

  https://jetpack.com/upgrade/anti-spam/.

  Or, you can also consider moving over to WordPress.com, where this is included in your plan :). You can read more about our plans here:
