Hi!
I had a rather nasty experience from a person whom I dont know. He sent me an email and informed me that he had filled out my contact form on my site and gained admin rights to my site? What the f..? HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE ?

I need urgent attention about this. I have used Gravity forms on many sites for my clients. This is really crazy

Do you have a link to this form and does this form use the user registration add-on with it?

The only way someone would gain access to your site by using a gravity form would be if the form was tied to a user registration feed. Do you see this user created in your admin? Do you have this email still that he sent you?
