As soon as you create your contact form using contact Forms you may get spam through the contact form. You can always use reCAPTCHA to separate bots from real visitors but it will take some time for your visitors to pass this test. Otherwise, you can use the CleanTalk Anti-Spam plugin instead so it will protect all of your Ninja forms and save your visitors’ time.
