Hi all.

I use contact form 7 for all of 2 WP sites. One site I received spam contact mails from the “tinfoil_name contact@tinfoil-fake-site.com”. Some mails messages body have “1*/;tinfoil_xss_in_script_tag_a1496d4ad0a359b6fe93d819e4a2141bd9d9ac35/*“

Previously I used reCAPTCHA, but P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler) shows it slowdown my sites.

Are there anyway to block such a abuse?

Aren’t you using this security scan service?

It’s not a spam.

Thanks Takayuki Miyoshi.

Yes, I enabled tinfoil security via CloudFlare for my 2 WP sites, that WordPress sites also installed contact form7. But I only experience this issue with one site. So is it any contact form configuration issue?

I don’t know. Why not ask Tinfoil?
