You mean a form that can be filled out and sent back to your email ?
nope, I don't get any spam through mine and if I start I will just add a capta thingy to it.

Its just a bunch of scambled numbers & letters and in the name spot it shows up as whos bot it was. In one of the fields it always has something like "Have a nice day" or "Nice Web Site"
If you do a google search on the IP numbers that it was sent from it also comes up that its the search engine bots doing it.

Its been alot here in the last month. We use siteground for hosting and you can see on the monthly report they crawl it all the time now.
Guess Ill contact support and see if they know why this stuff with the forms has started happening.
