The order is rejected before payment is taken, and you can customize the error message shown to the blocked customer. **Block by:** * **Email** — exact address (`spam@spammy.org`), whole domain (`@spammy.org`) or TLD (`.xyz`) * **Shipping address** — substring patterns checked against all address fields, or `r:` regex; also catches street/number split across address lines 1 and 2 * **Phone** — digit-normalized substring matching, so `5256016` catches `302-525- 6016`, `(302) 525-6016` and `+13025256016` alike; `r:` regex supported * **Name** — case-insensitive fragments against billing/shipping first and last names; `r:` regex supported * **IP** — exact IPs and CIDR ranges (`119.237.8.0/24`), with `#` comment lines **Covers every checkout path:** * Classic (shortcode) checkout * Block checkout (Store API) * Express payment buttons — Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal — which bypass the classic checkout validation **Keeps you informed:** * Counters of blocked checkout attempts (with reset buttons) * A recent-blocks log on each settings page showing the matched rule, attempted value and IP * Full history in WooCommerce > Status > Logs (source `wc-block-emails`) Matching is case-insensitive. Nothing is blocked until you add an entry. ## Screenshots [⌊Block Emails settings — email blocklist, error message, blocked counter and recent- blocks log.⌉⌊Block Emails settings — email blocklist, error message, blocked counter and recent-blocks log.⌉[ Block Emails settings — email blocklist, error message, blocked counter and recent- blocks log.

It blocks checkouts by email, shipping address, phone, name or IP during the WooCommerce checkout process. ### How do I use the plugin? After installing and activating the plugin, go to WooCommerce->Block Emails for email rules (one per line: `spam@spammy.org`, `@spammy.org` or `.xyz`) and WooCommerce- >Block Addresses for address, phone, name and IP rules. ### Does it work with the block checkout and express payment buttons? Yes. The checks also run on the Store API, which covers the block checkout and express buttons such as Apple Pay, Google Pay and PayPal. ### I used the separate Block Addresses for WooCommerce plugin. Do my rules carry over? Yes. This plugin uses the same settings storage, so existing address/IP/phone/name rules are picked up automatically. Deactivate the old plugin after updating so the checks don’t run twice. ## समीक्षा ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/93b2f382ec1cce822767f66a8bf69611c97aeac912e6bca1f5312b181a46a808? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great, Stops Google Bot Creating Fake Accounts And Purchases](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-stops-google-bot-creating-fake-accounts-and-purchases/)󠁿 [Damien](https://profiles.wordpress.org/damo69/) अक्टूबर 29, 2024 I used this to block Google Bot creating fake accounts and purchases using @storebotmail. joonix.net@joonix.netstorebotmail.joonix.net It worked a treat, google bot could still check prices via the checkout but could not make the actual sale, preventing hundreds of fake sales or abandoned carts ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/be0d4ef05034b544c93f97a98967f6d3b89a0140564dce64161bbeb362c6cf17? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great job](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-job-1347/)󠁿 [Hassan A](https://profiles.wordpress.org/hassan0a/) जून 19, 2024 Make sure you are using classic checkout and you will work great. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/79db4f3f68167121e814ee997acd3b2ac4e122181bd1b9e2259b43b0be0306f1? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[COPY AND PASTE YOUR LIST OF EMAILS TO BLOCK !

It is lightweight, user-friendly, and does the job perfectly. This plugin has already saved our store from countless fraudulent orders. How does it work? Simply enter in specific email addresses, or entire domains that you wish to block from placing orders on your store. If the block criteria is met when they try to place the order, a customizable message will appear at the top of the page and the order will not proceed. This plugin is now essential to all of our WooCommerce stores.
