Within the past 12 hours, I’ve been getting over 100 emails per hour via a contact form. Help!

[ad_1]

I don’t know how or why this started. I have two contact forms (Contact 7) on my website, one on my homepage and one on my contact page. I’ve verified there are only two active contact forms on my website, however, the emails I am receiving display a template for a contact form that I do not recognize nor have I set up. I’m getting up to 100 emails in a matter of seconds. Is my website getting attacked? Is there a glitch happening? How do I stop this? Can I get a point in the right direction?

I had to delete both contact forms so I could get it to stop and as of right now, it appears that worked but I don’t understand how they were able to submit a form different than the one I set up.

​

UPDATE: Even after I’ve deleted all my contact forms, I continue to receive emails from a non-existent contact form!
