Happy Holidays Black Hatters.

I have a client who's site allows for free sign up.

Daily the client is having 100s of sign-ups -when signing up the bot uses real email address.

I'm spending some amount of time per week deleting these users, plus when signing up they receive a transactional email which I'm sure is having a negative effect on the domain and imparticular that email servers deliverability rating.

The client has a ReCaptcha & a Honeypot already in place.

The bot is bypassing both, some people on here actually sell those service to bypass so I would be interested in hearing their thoughts - I'm bored of this please help me put an end to it.

Thanks for reading.
 
The only way to beat a bot is to have a customized sign up page such as the one on this site. You probably are going to need a real coder to do this:

Call the hosting company and block the IP address the bot is coming from.
 
Hi,
You can try to stop spam by blocking their ip with .htaccess file easily. Here how you can do that.

Find .htaccess file in file manager & right click then select edit. Then put below code.

<Limit GET POST PUT>
order allow,deny
allow from all
deny from 12.345.67.890
</Limit>


Best of Luck buddy.
