Jim Alfredson Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Hi there, In the last two days my forum is suddenly getting overrun with spam accounts. I have hCaptcha installed and require email authentication. It doesn't seem to matter. Suggestions? SeNioR- 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim M Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Would recommend checking out our guide here on Spam Prevention, it looks like you have disabled registration on your community currently so I cannot fully advise on what you have in place. There are also reports from other users where spam is currently extremely heavy at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted February 12, 2023 Author Share Posted February 12, 2023 Thanks. Yes I had to turn off new registrations. I had both validation emails and the hCaptcha system in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Stridgen Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Have you tried increasing the sensitivity in hCaptcha? Also, do you have multiple Question and Answer items added? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
