This person made 79 accounts on my site, each from a different location. Anyone have any ideas? Is this going to raise my google ads amount? Is this person just doing this so my google amount goes up so I have to pay more? I don’t understand, is it a bot?

He did not subscribe to any of my lists, just created 40-some abandoned carts in a 15 minute window. I have the spam filters checked as well. I am a relatively small business as it …

I’ve done the same. Created a segment in Klaviyo to capture anyone named “Mustermann.” Then make a note to delete those accounts in Klaivyo & Shopify once every couple of weeks. Also looking forward to Shopify’s resolution to blocking this bot.

I think it’s in bad taste to keep pushing your company’s apps when literally every customer in this forum is saying that spam protection should be included in the (already steep) price of Shopify. I know its your job to push what they want you to push, but please take this cue to let them know how t…
