Hello,
I keep receiving user registration messages (subj: A new shopper ************ registered at your shop *********), about 3-5 in a week. "Users'" data are obviously fake. I have VM installed but it is not active and not accessible from site's menu. It looks like the site is being getting hacked. Current configuration is Joomla 3.8.12 + VM 3.4.0 (to be updated to 3.4.1 in a few minutes).
Any advise would be very appreciated.
You can access joomla login by link and register a fake user.
Is it a complete VM registration or just Joomla data?

just try
http://www.yourwebsitename.com/index.php?option=com_users&view=registration
To prevent this - I use an override:
templates\YOURTEMPLATE\html\com_virtuemart\user\edit.php
This will prevent users editing their own data - but I decided that it was worth it for my purposes

I make my over ride much ruder....
Thanks to everybody for suggestions. I made a test registration from my web site and received a similar message. Its template has recently changed, that's what made me anxious.
