Spammails via contactform

    Hi.
    Since months I have problems getting Russian spam emails via my contact forum.
    But today it started getting new dimensions.
    Since this morning I get every 5 to 1p minutes a spam email via that form.

    What is going on? My mailbox is flooded.
    This is insane… Am I the only one who has this issue?
    And also if someone orders.. I don’t get a order confirmation email. I only know because they pay via PayPal and they send me a note?! Is that connected

    Regards
    Ronny Knepper

    Hi Ronny, is the site hosted here with us? Our hosting service includes spam protection through Jetpack/Akismet, but I don’t see a site hosted here on this account.

    If you are running your own copy of WordPress with another host, there are several anti-spam solutions out there: mostly captchas and protection services like the one we use here:
