Hi

we've just had 15 new customers register all in the space of a few minutes. They all appear to be BOT generated accounts.
Google Recaptcha is active on the registration page.
I've traced the IP's on a selection of the new accounts and they are all from Russia.
We get a few SPAM messages via the contact us page as well, which uses the same ReCaptcha.

Clearly the ReCaptcha isn't working, can anyone recommend a solution or replacement "human checker" that actually works.

regards
Sooty

What's your OpenCart version? If 2.3.0.2 or later, our SpamBot Buster can help with this.

These are my two goto add-ons for problems like yours:

Ninja Firewall
https://nintechnet.com/ninjafirewall/pro-edition

The free version of Ninja Firewall is fine.

Cidram
https://github.com/CIDRAM/CIDRAM

Plus an admin security extension. Not perfect but pretty good. :)
