: Unwanted redirect from a domain to my site An external person from my client company registered a domain and redirected to my client URL. For instance, if you type unwanteddomain.com it redirects

@Sue5673885

Finally resolved using these rewrite rules:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.unwanteddomain.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* whateverPlaceYouWantToSend.com [R,L]


HTTP_REFERER did not work so I used HTTP_HOST.

The way I would do this is block all requests which are coming from unwantedcomain.com by checking for HTTP_REFERER


Block traffic from a single domain:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} unwateddomain.com [NC]
RewriteRule .* - [F]

Block traffic from multiple domains:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} unwanteddomain.com [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} anotherdomain.com
RewriteRule .* - [F]
