If you removed add attachments for the group in the space but they are still able to add attachments are these new attachments or ones that have already been added?  

Space Permissions Overview | Confluence Data Center and Server 7.12 | Atlassian Documentation Here is information from the documentation:

Add attachment gives you permission to upload (attach) files to pages and blog posts in this space, and to edit attached files using the Companion app. 

Delete attachment gives you permission to remove attached files from pages or blog posts in the space. 

People with only Add page or blog permissions can still insert existing attached files in the editor, and remove files from the editor, so they're not displayed on the page or blog post. They can't however upload a new file, a new version of an existing file, edit an existing file using the Companion app, or delete the attached file itself.
