I’m getting weird 301 redirects from some domains that are not owned by us (e.g. sex4games[dot]com). Can this be blocked by using Cloudflare?
Thank you.

Unfortunately, no. A 301 looks like a fresh request, and will not contain a Referer header.
Out of curiosity, how did you find out where they’re coming from?
Hi @sdayman,
We found out from the backlinks report of ahref. There are vast amounts of the spam site linked to that domain which are then redirected to our website.
That’s unfortunate. I wish there was a way to block such referrers, but I’m not aware of any way to detect these, short of a lucky break of all of those 301 visitors having something else in common.
