• Hi, since several months if wp mail smtp plugin is activated and configured with a valid smtp credentials I receive a lot of spam

    I read in this forum and found other user with same problem but no solution

    My webmaster enabled recaptcha but problem still occurs (also askimet is activated)

    I don’t get how it’s possible if my contact form is like below (Name, email, message, privacy policy and recaptcha )

    https://postimg.cc/p5BMRF2L

    And the layout of email sent is

    https://postimg.cc/CBLQkQYS

    I receive a lot of spam with this layout

    Any hint ?

    Thank you

    I forgot to say that I see in visitor log of my website that spammers (bot) visited my contact page before sending spam so I’m pretty sure that there is a bug or something wrong with my config and spam is sent through that page

    And I repeat That I don’t get how it’s possible if my contact form field are
    Name, email, message, privacy policy and recaptcha

    I get email with

    Only name and email fields

    edit:

    i checked last two spam email and the spammers arrived directyl to my italian version of contact page:

    5.188.84.119 - - [02/Sep/2020:22:05:29 +0200] "GET /it/contatti-argenteria-dabbene/ HTTP/1.0" 200 64101 "https://www.argenteriadabbene.com/it/contatti-argenteria-dabbene/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/49.0.2623.112 Safari/537.36"
    5.188.84.119 - - [02/Sep/2020:22:05:31 +0200] "POST /it/contatti-argenteria-dabbene/ HTTP/1.0" 200 - "https://www.argenteriadabbene.com/it/contatti-argenteria-dabbene/" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/49.0.2623.112 Safari/537.36"

    this is the form code:

    Obviously the spam message (https://postlmg.cc/tZwNJS4r) has nothing to do with any of the contact forms. It is likely to be sent from out of the site.

    Sorry to bother you again
    To be sure to search in the right direction

    Out of the site… even if the spammers visit each time the contact page ?

    and this is content of an email
