<title>A fake user registration attack spiked on my Q2A site.</title>
<link>https://www.question2answer.org/qa/90027/a-fake-user-registration-attack-spiked-on-my-q2a-site</link>
<description>

&lt;ul&gt;

&lt;li&gt;The unknown malicious attacker managed to register a &lt;strong&gt;fake 6000+ IDs&lt;/strong&gt; in the last &lt;strong&gt;eight days&lt;/strong&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;I have already implemented &lt;strong&gt;Google reCaptcha&lt;/strong&gt;. Still, the attacker managed to register fake users bypassing reCaptcha.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;I got a suspension notice from the hosting provider due to a sudden &lt;strong&gt;spike in outgoing emails&lt;/strong&gt; in order&amp;nbsp;to convey registration details.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Most email IDs are either fake or disposable.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color:#ffff99&quot;&gt;Has anyone a solution to prevent spam registration attacks?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;PS:&amp;nbsp; The plugin named Q2A user manager helps me to delete users in bulk. It's not solution but helped lot in cleaning the junk users.

<title>Answer custom question before being allowed to register</title>
<link>https://www.question2answer.org/qa/63570/answer-custom-question-before-being-allowed-to-register</link>
<description>Can I limit new registration to users who are able to answer a custom question that only my users know (anti-spam protection)? The question will always be the same for all users. Thanks</description>

<title>Which spam addon or combination to use?</title>
<link>https://www.question2answer.org/qa/56730/which-spam-addon-or-combination-to-use</link>
<description>

&lt;p&gt;I see the following spam plugins on the q2a addons section - which ones should we be using as standard and which can we ignore?
&lt;br&gt;Given we use bootstrap, it seems to me installing 1,3 and 6 would seem sufficient. Is that reasonable?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ol&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Akismet Plugin&amp;nbsp;by&amp;nbsp;Dave Hannon. Uses the&amp;nbsp;Akismet&amp;nbsp;spam filtering service to detect spammy posts and queue them for moderation.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;AntiBot Captcha&amp;nbsp;by&amp;nbsp;Krzysztof Kielce. Simple and easy captcha for Q2A 1.5+.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Bootstrap reCAPTCHA&amp;nbsp;by&amp;nbsp;Amiya Sahu. A version of the default reCAPTCHA plugin that works well with Bootstrap-based themes.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;KeyCAPTCHA Captcha&amp;nbsp;by&amp;nbsp;Andrey Gvosdev. Provides the&amp;nbsp;KeyCAPTCHA&amp;nbsp;captcha for Q2A.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Logical Captcha&amp;nbsp;by&amp;nbsp;Amiya Sahu. Shows simple logical questions from&amp;nbsp;Text CAPTCHA&amp;nbsp;as a captcha challenge.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;li&gt;Spammer Checker&amp;nbsp;by Walter Williams @&amp;nbsp;Sawtooth Software. On IP address pages, checks&amp;nbsp;stopforumspam.com&amp;nbsp;and&amp;nbsp;botscout.com&amp;nbsp;to see if the IP belong to a known spammer
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;</description>

<description>

&lt;p&gt;
	Hello All ,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;
	Felling proud to say , I have created another plugin&amp;nbsp;that serves simple logical questions for anti spam verification .&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;div&gt;
	This will provides simple questions to users while registering into the q2a site or if a unverified users does some activity like asking a question , or answering them .&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;
	It will help you in STOP Spamming on your website .&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;
	Download - &amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;http://q2astore.com/product/logical-captcha/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;http://q2astore.com/product/logical-captcha/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;div&gt;
	&lt;strong&gt;Advantages&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;


&lt;ul&gt;
	

&lt;li&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;Pretty simple, easy and logical questions for verification&lt;/li&gt;
	

&lt;li&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;all possible answers for one question&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
	

&lt;li&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;random questions are choosen out of 180,243,205 questions from the database&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
	

&lt;li&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;less repetitive questions , so it is harder to decode by the bots&amp;nbsp;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;


&lt;p&gt;
	How to install - You can find the same on the github page .&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;

<title>How about Captcha - AntiBot Captcha plugin ?</title>
<link>https://www.question2answer.org/qa/11675/how-about-captcha-antibot-captcha-plugin</link>
<description>

&lt;p&gt;
	Would you find it useful ?
&lt;br&gt;
	Here is SCREENSHOT : &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;
	&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; src=&quot;http://www.question2answer.org/qa/?qa=blob&amp;amp;qa_blobid=1934000019783747644&quot; style=&quot;width: 420px; height: 500px;&quot;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;


&lt;p&gt;
	It is much easier for human to rewrite than reCAPTCHA. Especially for non-english speakers like me. However it is still well protection against spam-bots.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
