Deny requests from unauthorized domains

    I’m having a hard time trying to figure out why WordPress is allowing this site’s request to come in when I specifically blocked it on my .htaccess file: 

    RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME} ^(www\.)?moonlightbeachclub\.com$
RewriteRule ^ - [F]

    This used to work when my site was hand-coded. But then I decided it was too hard to mantain because I was busy on my other jobs, so I decided to make a simple WordPress blog which will be easier to mantain.

    This rule is no longer working.

    The problem is that the site https://moonlightbeachclub.com is trying to pass as if they were my site: https://hsoto.me

    GoDaddy has been contacted about this issue, and they told me to go to this stackoverflow thread to solve it, as they couldn’t do anything else to help me:

    https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13872892/htaccess-deny-requests-from-unauthorized-domains

    I went there and that’s where I got my code which was working until I installed WordPress. Is there something different I can do? Please help me.

    UPDATE: I finally got it to work by moving the instructions to the beggining of the file.

    Now it denies all the requests from that unauthorized account.
