I built a website for a client with a contact page created in RSForms. They complained to me that they are getting a lot of Spam submissions in Cyrillic (apparently Russian) and asked me to block it. Using RS Firewall I have blocked Russian Federation, Serbia, Ukraine, and Bulgaria. I thought I had solved the problem, but Russian spam still trickled in. Is there any way to block entries based on the text characters? CanI, for example block any messages that are in Cyrillic?

Hello,

While editing a Textbox or a Textarea field, you can select the Letters or the Letters and Numbers validation rules. These will allow only numbers and standard letters to be submitted.
