I've also tried a valid number from one of my sandbox accounts and I still get the same cc info is invalid error.

Correct phone number format on Amplify Auth / Cognito?

I'm trying to signup to a site I created with AWS Amplify. I added Auth and clicked to allow signing in with both email and phone number. However, when I try creating an account, I get an error saying the phone number format is incorrect. So far I've tried:
+17184625510
7184625510
718-462-5510
etc
but I consistently get the following error. Any help would be appreciated!
According to AWS Cognito, The phone number must be in E.164 format. eg. "+12065550100".
This is a known bug in the Amplify UI which you can read more about in the corresponding GitHub Issue where there is also a proposed workaround for the problem that you can try until the problem is fixed.
The problem is that the +1 that is entered as a default for the country code is undefined in the code. Everything currently works if you switch from +1 to another country code (or to another country code and back to +1 again). If your users are not in the +1 region they probably won't notice, otherwise take a look at the workaround.

IN divi conatct form submissions getting weird emails in inbox

In my Wordpress site I have configured the divi contact from module and After submission I am getting some weird emails like I am getting message pattern as it is in the email rather then actual details of user.
And when I tried to submit the same form multiple times, form is working correctly and getting desired details.
I have tried sending email multiple times.
Checked server error logs and found xmlrpc file enabled and multiple hits on that file.
Below is the email I am getting form user.
Hi,
you got a message from xyz website.
this is from %%name%%, the email id is %%email%%, company name is %%company_name%%.
And the message was ...
%%msg%% .
%%subscribe%%**
This is the desired result for form submission.
Hi,
you got a message from xyz website.
this is from ABC, the email id is abc#gmail.com, company name is ABC.
And the message was ...
ABC .
I also subscribe the form.
this is from %%name%%, the email id is %%email%%, company name is %%company_name%%. And the message was ... %%msg%% . %%subscribe%%**
Here %%name%%, %%email%%, %%company_name%% are the ID field of the form fields. Make sure you have entered the correct values of the ID field. There are chances that you may have entered the Label value instead of ID value.
Kindly share the screenshot of the Contact Form Message Pattern screen where you enter these details. So we can help you.
that is not the issue, It was a spam message and prevented these kind of messages using cleanTalk or Wpbruiser plugin, got resolved my issue.

Can't find Bing spell check errors in LUIS

Bing Spell Check is not working in LUIS, and LUIS does not show an error message.
I'm trying to use Bing Spell Check in LUIS (online - luis.ai), but it is not working, and LUIS does not show an error message. I can call the spell check API directly with our subscription key and it works fine. I can mangle the sub's key and it shows an error, so I know spell check itself is working fine.
It does not work when called from the LUIS testing panel. I have tried valid and invalid keys, but nothing is shown in LUIS. How do I see the error(s)? Where does LUIS post those error messages?
You can test on luis.ai by including your Bing Spell Check subscription key as a session variable in the testing panel. Following these steps should get you the results you are looking for.
Open the Test panel and enter a misspelled word (e.g. "greating" instead of "greeting".
Once entered, click the "Inspect" link
Click "Compare with published"
Click the "Additional Settings" link and choose your the endpoint to test against
Check the Enable Bing Spell Check option, enter your subscription key in the input field, and click Done
Click the "Show JSON view" link to view the response, including the "alteredQuery" value housing the corrected spelling
Hope of help!

Goal,cause & prevention of wordpress contact-form spam?

Our domain email address started receiving blank spam emails from our contact form (this is known from the header). They are from seemingly random email addresses and have no content. They are received roughly every 5 minutes with occasional 45 minute breaks. The form works correctly and I've tried both Askimet and Honeypot plugins (both together and separately) to no avail. The contact form (Contact-Form-7) has required fields. I believe Honeypot is failing due to the blank content and the hidden field not being populated. Here is an example of what the email contains:
From: WordPress [mailto:info#domain.com]
Sent: Thursday, April 13, 2017 3:47 PM
To: info#domain.com
Subject: contact form from domain.com
Name: 58f0002d1ad5f 58f0002d1ada9
Email: randomname#random.com
Subject:
Message:
The random name & email services are from various providers (billy#hotmail.com, kelly#yahoo.com, jim#gmail.com, etc). The Name field contains a seemingly random string (58efeaa9252e7 58efeaa92532d, 58efeaaf3099c 58efeaaf309da,58f0002d1ad5f 58f0002d1ada9, etc)
What is responsible for this particular type of spam?
What is the actual goal of blank spam email?
Is there another plugin or workaround that could filter the spam besides captcha?
Honeypot will not catch blank email spam as noted above. Invisible reCaptcha will prevent this particular type of spam.
As far as possible motivation(s)/reason(s):
1.The spammers send the e-mail, along with a million others. Some bounce, some don't. They now know which e-mail addresses are still current.
2.Some people, amazingly, actually reply, even if it's just to say "Unsubscribe me!". Bingo, the e-mail address is current and there's a person behind it, and that person actually opens e-mails sent by the particular send address they've used.
3.Sometimes the content isn't as empty as it seems. For instance, many spam messages contain a one-pixel-by-one-pixel image with a trackback url; as soon as you view the message, they get pinged that this particular pixel was viewed - Bingo as above. That's the reason many modern mail clients warn you about images in messages and suggest you don't view the images unless you trust the source.
You could use invisible reCAPTCHA or use Contact Form's build in quiz/question.
I'm having the same issue with this bot/spammer. Honeypot doesn't work for me either. Would be interested to know the source and goal of this spammer.

Create topic using a bot

I'm in a situation in which i need to be able to create a topics using self created bot. My forum has a special category and user, which can create a topics in that category.
Technology i'm using to create that bot is ruby + mechanize gem but it's not important right now. That bot works in a following way:
Sign in as previously mentioned user:
visit - /ucp.php?mode=login
fill the sign-in form using user credentials
if, after submiting a form, there is a sign-out link somewhere on the page, threat this whole process as "successfull"
Create a topic
visit - /posting.php?mode=post&f=21
fill subject field with desired subject
fill message field with desired message
submit a form using Submit button
And now, while first point works just great, the second one behaves in a strange way. After submiting a form, there is no error message or anything like that, i'm just getting redirected to /viewforum.php?f=21 (log's says that it's 302 Moved Temporarily status) page and the topic is not there.
Can anyone tell me what such behaviour means? Is there any security mechanism i don't know about? Please also note that the new topic form has form_token and creation_time fields filled correctly while form is beeing submited.
Thanks in advance for any clues.
According to this thread: https://stackoverflow.com/a/11713867/552936, user is treated as a bot if he sends a form without any delay (and it end's up with a 302 redirect). I can't find any info on google what's the exact delay, carck3r says that it's 8 seconds but for me, it was 2 seconds.
