   here you recommended flamingo plugin to use with contact form. - BE AWARE phishing scheme

   After installing I've been contacted by my hosting provider Network Abuse Department and they said that my account has been implicated in a phishing scheme

   and i had to remove next files

   wp-includes/js/scriptaculous/update.php
   wp-includes/js/scriptaculous/logon.php
   wp-includes/js/scriptaculous/NBmain.html
   wp-includes/js/scriptaculous/Challenge.html

   mass mailer needs to be removed
   wp-content/plugins/flamingo/black.php

   shell
   wp-content/plugins/flamingo/blackenemy.php

   So i have a very bad experience with this plugin and do not recommend it

   The package of the Flamingo plugin doesn't contain the file named "blackenemy.php". The issue is only happening on your host, and it is not the plugin's problem.
