I used this to block Google Bot creating fake accounts and purchases using @storebotmail.
joonix.net@joonix.netstorebotmail.joonix.net It worked a treat, google bot could
still check prices via the checkout but could not make the actual sale, preventing
hundreds of fake sales or abandoned carts

Make sure you are using classic checkout and you will work great.

Great plugin! Does what it says. But I was wondering if you could update it to support
WooCommerce’s HPOS. I want to enable it, but it says that your plugin isn’t compatible
with it.

This plugin is an absolute game-changer! It very helpful to prevent receiving orders
from specific domain and whole TDLs, Also the developer’s kindness in crafting such
a valuable tool is commendable. Thank you for this excellent solution!

If you’re running a WooCommerce store, having a quick and easy way to block known
fraudulent email domains or specific users from checking out is essential. It is
lightweight, user-friendly, and does the job perfectly. This plugin has already 
saved our store from countless fraudulent orders. How does it work? Simply enter
in specific email addresses, or entire domains that you wish to block from placing
orders on your store. If the block criteria is met when they try to place the order,
a customizable message will appear at the top of the page and the order will not
proceed. This plugin is now essential to all of our WooCommerce stores.
