New aggresive spammers in the market...

[Join us @ facebook]

The last two days I got a very big ammount of referer spam from several domains.

Looking at the ips of the spammers I realized that these people use some kind of spyware to spam, as they use more than 30 ips at the same time, from different countries.

The bad thing with them is that they use new domains each hour(!!!) so we can't get anything by blacklisting their domains.

If you have the same problem, propably you need something more generic like this :

Code:

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^(.*)mortgage(.*) [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^(.*)casino(.*) [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^(.*)poker(.*) [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^(.*)credit(.*) [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^(.*)pharmacy(.*) [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^(.*)discount(.*) [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^(.*)insurance(.*) [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^(.*)loans(.*) [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^(.*)consolidation(.*)
RewriteRule ^.* - [F]
