Shopify like all their technicall / programming support questions to be posted on stack overflow.
I have a client who is suffering from a horrendous amount of spam accounts.. hundreds of fake accounts are being set up each day. I've looked into captcha solutions - but none of these work (I'm assuming because the bot just reads the post url? - or has learnt it as shopify is a hosted platform).
I would like to integrate a honeypot - is there any server side hook that can be used to throw the fake user out? I've googled through shopify's documentation - but can't find anything on this. Thanks.
You can setup and listen to the customers/create Webhook. When you receive the customer records, you can do an internal inspection and decide whether it is fake or not.
Why not have a form element the human customer has to fill out before you accept the submission of the form. Most bots are too stupid to figure that out.
