Spam Obfuscation

  • I set this up and it’s great, but the spammer who is hammering away is obfuscating words, so Czech Reрublic is actually CzDμ??h RDμ?€ublic. It reads perfectly as plain readable text in your email too so it took a while to figure out why words slipped through. Apparently, It’s one of the oldest tricks in the book. News to me! I’m eager to see if you have any suggestions or perhaps a feature to look into?

    Your help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    Hi, @yonifre,

    Lol not quite how about this ? ????’? ?ē? y??… or this ? ????’? ?ё? у??…

    Just looking to see if you have any suggestions for this type of spam that bypasses your spam plugin, it reads as clean readable text too through elementor web form and your plugin.

    Thanks

    Unfortunately that does not work. There is just block Latin or Unknown Language. English is also missing might that be a pro feature?

    Allow only the following countries does not work and creates parse error. It seems like whatever solution I try there is a wall in front of me with this so far.
