Spam From Website Been Using Cloudflare Turnstile Captcha

I have been using Cloudflare Turnstile Captcha for a while because I was receiving a lot of spam messages from different Gmail addresses every time. That hasn't happened since then. However, I was recently told by my host that they have blocked my outgoing mail because it turned out that a lot of spam originates from there. Upon further investigation, this proved to be true, and once again from various fake Gmail accounts. Why are there these problems every time? I run another website where I use the Google invisible recaptcha, and I still occasionally receive incoming spam mail from various Gmail addresses there, but no problems with outgoing.

I've just reactivated Google ReCAPTCHA on my forms.

Hoi Henk,

As you know SPAM is global problem, the same has all CMS users as well. Your question should be asked to Cloudflare support, not us probably.

For sure, I recommend block IP from some countries, and using extra anty-spam filters. It may help. Example settings from popular Firewall extension. info_3096_2026.png


But until UE goverment will not do anything else, we have to fight all alone.

And what is a popular firewall, for example, that is known to work well?
