    Hello,
    the Complianz plugin needs for the page “Cookie Richtlinie” a real Mailadress, not obfuscated. But it seems, that this Mailadress ist read and used by robots or other for
    phishing Mails, send as of my behalf.
    There is no other place on the Website, where the mailadress is given uncovered.

    Has anybody an idea for this topic?

    Thank you
    Kirsten

    You have a contact form on your site. This contact form is probably used by bots: they fill in the form, then send it, which results in the spam you experience.

    Hi @molke7,

    As for the email address, you can search for ‘e-mail’ in your cookie richtlinie page source and you will find the obfuscated code.

    This is how spiders see your email address, which is just scrambled text.
