Hi Nicolas,
As you rightly identified, clictune is a spam referrer. I haven’t tried the plugin you suggested, but it’s possible to block it via htaccess.
Copy and paste the below code in .htaccess
RewriteEngine on
#Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} clictune\.com [NC]
RewriteRule .* – [F]Once done, go to clictune referral URL and try clicking your website link. Your website will throw 403 Forbidden error.
