Bootstrap Multi-Select Form submit twice

Question

I'm having an issue using bootstrap-multiselect and ajax.

My Form :

<form class="fill" method="POST" id="inputForm">  
  <select id="SelectIDExample">
    <option value="1">Option 1</option>
    <option value="2" selected="selected">Option 2</option>
    <option value="3" >Option 3</option>
    <option value="4">Option 4</option>
    <option value="5">Option 5</option>
    <option value="6">Option 6</option>
  </select>
</form>

My libraries:

• css/bootstrap.min.css
• js/jquery.min.js
• js/bootstrap.min.js
• js/bootstrap-multiselect.js
• bootstrap-multiselect.css

Here's a small snippet of my JavaScript:

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#SelectIDExample').multiselect({
    buttonWidth: '400px',
    dropRight: true,
    onChange: function(option, checked, select, event) {
      event.preventDefault();
      return false;
    },

  });

  $('#inputForm').change(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    var form = $(this);
    var post_data = form.serialize();

    $.ajax({
      type: 'POST',
      data: post_data,
      success: function() {
        alert("I am Called...");
      }
    });
  });
});

Problem

Whenever I change the Option's, I am alerted twice "I am Called...", meaning the form is submitted twice.

Expectation

I want this to be submitted once or called once.

Note: I know that with Simple Select option, the alert is called once, but when I use Bootstrap multi-select, the alert is called twice.

How can I fix this?

I need have control on submit of the form and do not required it from Bootstrap multiselect or any other hidden methods from the plugin that use.

Thanks for all you reply. Seems this was able to solve my issue :-)

 $('#SelectIDExample').multiselect({
        buttonWidth: '400px',
        dropRight: true,
        preventInputChangeEvent: true
      });
