Problem with repeated fake orders with the PayPal Woocommerce Plugin

Using WooCommerce PayPal Payments - had a problem with repeated fake orders exploiting a vulnerability with the PayPal button. Added a captcha to the checkout which prevents the bots placing orders through Apple Pay and Google Pay (via Paypal). However, the Paypal button itself can be clicked even if the Captcha has been ignored, so the Paypal button is vulnerable and we can't prevent spam orders. The orders are spaced about 15 minutes apart, for the cheapest items in our store. From multiple IPs: 1[Removed. Phone #s not permitted] [removed] IPs are from all over. Germany, UK, Hong Kong, etc We've had to disable Paypal on all our sites until we can find a solution. Seems to be an issue with the Plugin but who do we contact to fix it?

https://woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-paypal-payments/#get-help directed us to Paypal.

 

Thanks, hope someone can help 🙂
