Hi,

Don't think this is possible, but worth asking.
One of the sites I run is a charity facebook group, but a large number of people join via the associated website.

Big problem with daily spam posts selling fake Ugg boots and Vuitton handbags - all with different domains, bit all domains included the word "Ugg" or "Vuitton".
I know nothing can be done on the Facebook side of things, but is there are a way to block visitors originating from domains including those keywords?

All ip's are different too which is why I think it can't be done, but thought I'd check just in case there is a solution!

Thanks,

 

Alistair

Thanks Bruce, but it's not email that's the problem, just the fact that they visit the site. No problem - didn't think there was much I could do.

Thanks for your help :)

This is a method I have not tested but give it a try, just add this to the top of your .htaccess file,

SetEnvIfNoCase Referer ugg spammer=yes
SetEnvIfNoCase Referer vuitton spammer=yes

Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Deny from env=spammer
