Hi all,

This is a nightmare! I am experiencing the same problem with fake Google accounts for a while and I cannot find a solution to prevent the registration.

Everyday I receive more than 50 new fake customers with a telephone number: 123456 and company = google. I have enabled reCaptcha for customer registration form but I am still receiving new fake inserts. Captcha just reduced the amount of requests but did not solve the problem. I checked online my site and the registration do not proceed with an incorrect captcha so, the spam bot must bypass this security...

How can I stop this?

Thanks for the help!

I am currently running version 3.40 of nopcommerce, and have recently started getting very many bogus customer accounts created, along with bogus forum posts and/or product reviews. I only work with the no-source-version, so the honeypot solution is not available to me. I have re-captcha enabled on the forms, but the bot is able to get past it.

I would also like to be able to schedule and execute a delete script which finds all customers with telephone (123456) and company (google). To be thorough, the script would also need to delete any associated address records, product reviews, blog comments, and forum posts.

The table joins are proving to be fairly complicated. Can you share your working script with us?


Thanks,
Steve

My server crashed but once I get access to the hard drive I will post the SQL script I used and then you can just set it up on a daily DTS package in SQL Server and never have to worry about it again.
