SPAM Leads

We have been getting two or three spam leads a day on a certain landing page. This page uses a Debounce script to confirm that the email address is valid. However, the leads come in usually with an email domain of abc.com. There is no pattern to the IP address, they are always different. The referring source is always one of three different pages. This page runs in Wordpress behind a proxy so I have blocked those referrers but they still come in. I could easily code it to block leads from the abc.com domain.

I ran this by Support and they said there is a new feature rolling out to reduce spam leads.

Is anyone else seeing this on their pages?

Two extra suggestions for you… If the “lead” is being driven by a bad offender on Google PPC you could consider using clickcease.com and you could also modify your placements for Google ads.
