How do I stop people from soliciting me on my contact form through my website on Weebly.com?

I am receiving a number of three to four entries on my contact form on my website through Weebly.com, which is obviously connected to Square. How do I stop people from going to my website and contacting me to solicit me. They will do this seven times in a week and it's the same people. How do I stop this?

hey @td39 

Is the Captcha toggled on for your contact form?  It should be turned on by default I believe. 

 

Alternatively, if they are the exact same people contacting you on a normal basis, you could always block the IP address as well.

Okay, I appreciate your answering, but have to tell you that you've got to put this into layman terms for me LOL. I don't know how to find the Captcha option and certainly do not know how to block the IP address. Can you give it to me in steps? Not an IT person. Thank you!

HI, you can reach your settings within your editor.

 

Here are the breadcrumbs and screenshot to apply.

Online Dashboard, Website, Edit Site, scroll down to Contact Us, scroll down to Settings, scroll down to Form Settings, turn on Enable Google CAPTCHA

I just received a contact form from someone asking where their sunglasses order is. My business sells wreaths. Is this someone just trying to scam me? I’m so confused.
