    Hello,
    We like millions of forms are getting a variation of this same image stolen spam message over and over:
    “`Hello there!

    This is Melynda and I am a professional photographer and illustrator.

    I was puzzled, putting it lightly, when I recognised my images at your website. If you use a copyrighted image without an owner’s approval, you need to be aware that you could be sued by the creator.`”

    It is always from a Mel and always contains a sites.google.com malware link. Would it be possible to have the plugin detect these unique circumstances of Mel + sites.google.com link and block those too? Below is an article detailing the same spam form submission. Google shows 6 million+ similar hits for it as well.

    Thanks in advance!

    This plugin is designed to block automated bots that don’t process JavaScript the same way as a normal browser. When bots have those features, it becomes more difficult to block automatically.

    We recommend the GF Blacklist plugin by GravityWiz to block submissions with certain words in them (here’s our affiliate link, if you want!).
