Adobe Portfolio Contact Form Sending Spam Emails

[KSFletcher]

Hi,

Is anyone else receiving spam emails from what appears to be legitimate contacts on LinkedIn and Indeed stating they received the information via Adobe Portfolio Contact Form?

Sadly, there's nothing anyone can do about human spam.  But there's a simple way to thwart robots with a required text field.  See screenshot.

If the field is left blank, the form won't submit.  If the field is completed, it's from a human.

Not from adobe but I've gotten 3 emails from individuals with attached
contracts for security services - Guard.io & Norton. And Guard.io actually
took $15 from my bank account - I'm still working to get that money back!!

My daughter is in Cyber-security and she says that it has something to do
with AI plus if you notice so called schools are offering short term cyber
security degrees which is absurd - but i think it's all related and people
are going to have to be more conscious of security.

Sorry I couldn't help but I could empathize.

Email spam is not sent from Adobe. It comes from outside sources through whichever means is exploitable.  With over a billion websites worldwide, there are at least that many contact forms for spammers to target.
