We are using website "contact us" form to automatically create lead in Odoo. However, we have observed that bogus / spam leads getting created in Odoo with junk information. We tried using blacklisting the email id but that doesn't stop. How to address / stop this?

There are several ways to prevent spam from coming through a website's "contact us" form, here are a few:


Use a CAPTCHA or reCAPTCHA on the form to ensure that only humans can submit it.

Use an anti-spam plugin or module, such as Akismet, which can help to filter out spam messages.

Use the Honeypot method, which uses a hidden field in the form that only bots will fill out, and if the field is filled out the message will be marked as spam.

Validate the email address by sending a verification link or code to it

Use a third-party service like Google's invisible reCAPTCHA to validate form submissions

In the case of Odoo v13, you can use the built-in "Contact Form" module, which has a built-in spam protection feature, or you can use the "Website Form Builder" module, which allows you to create custom forms and includes anti-spam features such as CAPTCHA and Honeypot.
