Strider Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 If the "bot" can get past the recaptcha, then it is not a bot, it is a human, but he is spamming your VA. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Txmmy83 Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 If the "bot" can get past the recaptcha, then it is not a bot, it is a human, but he is spamming your VA. no I think that this "Ethebra Ethebra" user that registered at my VA is not human look up the name in "stop forum spam" I think thats a new generation of spam bots that can deal with recaptcha Best Regards Thomas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 You can use a question that wouldn't be an obvious answer, i.e. what is the fourth word in this sentence? Rather than, are you a bot (enter "no") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davehardy Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 recaptcha is "hackable" I know a friend who buys the codes from India, they have people who sit there and collect all the codes or something and sell them in bulk! The bots are constantly getting through my recaptcha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 There is code on the forums, that detects a spammer and rejects the application before it even gets into the database. It uses the stop forum spam api as far as I know. It can however reject actual people wanting to joing you VA, has happened to my VA a few times, but I rarely if ever get any spam registrations now.
