Hi so just today I received hundreds of hits from this referal site trafficdrive.club. This was within a half hour period.

Now the thing is that various countries I've banned on Cloudflare are reigstering as visitor nations in the GA data. What should I do now? Please advise. Thanks!

Hard to say how that traffic broker is sending hits. Usually those kind of traffic sites, piggy back on other traffic and frame it. So someone hits a page, and buried in the page are redirects after redirects inside of frames. Someone once found a page that had 9000 other framed urls that lazy loaded. To be sure, add this frame breaker to your htaccess...

Header set X-FRAME-OPTIONS "deny"
Header set Content-Security-Policy "frame-ancestors 'none';"
