Name of Feature/Request: ReCaptcha option for calendar scheduling link
What financial, time savings, or quality of life improvements will occur from this: While scheduling appointments add a level of security to prevent bots from requesting meetings | Frequency: Our sales people were saying there were getting 12-16 per week | I am not sure if there is anything you can do but wanted to bring this to your attention. Maybe a captcha on the website when people go to book an appointment?We have received over the past few weekends many leads (about 8-10 a weekend) appts from yahoo and Gmail domains. They typically come in between midnight and 5am. They never show. Overall during the week we probably get 12-16 per week.
We have shifted the hours of some of our ads as the fake leads may have been coming in off business hours, but we’re not 100% sure if they were, or if the fake leads have reduced since we changed the hours last week.
Attempted Solutions So Far: We have shifted the hours of some of our ads as the fake leads may have been coming in off business hours, but we’re not 100% sure if they were, or if the fake leads have reduced since we changed the hours last week.
Digging deep - Any additional Why behind this request / How was this accomplished before Striven in what system or software: Original Description: I am not sure if there is anything you can do but wanted to bring this to your attention. Maybe a captcha on the website when people go to book an appointment? | Previously accomplished: Right now, there is no captcha. We are working towards adding a honey pot to the contact us form to try to reduce spam before they get to the calendar. However, are other ways users will get to the schedule form. Some people can get there in email signatures for example. In those cases, there is no captcha/honeypot from the contact form to prevent spam.
