Over the last few weeks, I’ve had a massive influx of bots with similar names and addresses adding low price products to carts and then abandoning them. I’ve spoken with Shopify support regarding this issue and all they could tell me was to “install bot protection apps” and to turn on re-captcha. Ne…

That’s what i’m doing now. Thanks for the validation.

The solution is here. As I mentioned in earlier posts, we’ve spent weeks battling Shopify’s inability to deal with malicious bot traffic, especially fake add-to-carts and inflated session data. We implemented a third-party WAF to fix it, and after extensive testing, refinement, and real-world usage…

After installing the app I contacted support. They walked me through the steps (took 30 minutes or so). We went from hundreds of abando…

It Sure Is! Working PERFECTLY. And… support has been quick to answer any quesitons. I am not removing my klaviyo flows or filters, and I am keeping the N8N server too – but Armex app with the firewall and script is the missing element to say goodbye to the bots. This SHOULD have been a Shopify …

Installed and issue fixed within hours. Congrats and a huge thank you for creating a real deal fix for this issue. I can sleep now.

Anyone else quite suspicious of this “solution”? I got these emails from “Boostymark” the “BM: Country blocker IP Blocker” that was also supposedly a secret solution, and started in 2023. Then they recommended going over to the new “Armex” app, which if you look at the privacy policy is generic and …

Anyone else tried this solution? I am at my wits end with these bots, but messing around with our DNS doesn’t make me very comfortable.
