    Hi Forum & Enfold-Team,
    I have implemented the contact form and the math question and conditions checkbox are mandatory. Now I am receiving spam messages with the checkbox unchecked. On the mail it says “I have read and understood your reasonable terms: false”.

    How can I prevent receiving spam like this? Why can mails be sent if the terms are marked with “false” – in my understanding the checkbox is not accepted in this way?
    I cannot see whether the mathematical problem has really been solved.

    Can someone read out the e-mail address to which the e-mail was sent? Do I have to implement Google reCAPTCHA?

    Many thanks!
    Kind regards,
    bleistift
    P.S.: I did some research on reCAPTCHA. It seams that it needs a lot of java traffic. Do you have any experiences with the plugin https://dineshkarki.com.np/buy-wp-armour-extended instead?

    Hey bleistift,

    Thank you for the inquiry.

    Did you set the Form Element Validation settings of the checkbox field to Is not empty? It’s possible that an automated script or bot bypassed the validation. If your site is being targeted by spam, you may need to use active Google reCAPTCHA or switch to a different contact form with more advanced security features, such as Contact Form 7 or WPForms.

    Best regards,
    Ismael
