Can I catch someone using a VPN? How ?

This is interesting, and I believe you know what you are talking about, but if it is (easy) doable, VPNs as service is pointless.

a vpn hides your location by replacing your ipn with the server's ipn, this makes it harder (but not impossible) to trace a visitor. you will have to block many ip numbers since vpns have dozens of outlets.

You could port scan the IP's to see if they had any ports open which are associated with VPN's but this is highly offensive and you run the risk of getting blacklisted by a lot of subnets especially government ones.
 
It's funny how most people don't know what they talking about, some absurd suggestions. Just use a fraud filtering solution. I recommend IPQUALITYSCORE, they have a free version, 250 IPs lookup per month. Just include their PHP file and it will block vpns, proxies and known fraud users.

I'have a simple pHP script that can Detect VPN or hosting IPs easily. But can't know the real IP.
Also, If the timezone is different you can catch though simple javascript.

But in both cases Real IP will be unrevealed.
 
its possible
vpn users probably experienced this before
you're connected to the vpn
try to access some website
and it says you're blocked --- vpn detected!
there are blacklists out there. probably paid. maybe get lucky and find a free one.

google "vpn detection script" and get to work

These guys are amateurs.
Just block the domain herokuapp.com.
See how long it takes them to notice.
Curious what they will try next.

Also, you say you are exchanging emails with them.
That's the way to catch them. Think out of the box!

Good luck!

Ha, that explains a lot. Didn't know about that Hero App. My bad.
I thought they used that to switch IP & country...
 
his real ip can be leaked and known only if he forget to block Webtrc

half are crawler bots and other look normal ips. Even if OP uses a vpn blocking solution it will not work.

Even if someone is using hacked devices as proxy and placing fake orders. How fb and google crawlers can place fake orders?

Can anyone tell me which VPN Company this belongs to ?
His IP always begins with 2a so I want to block s big range of them once I find them . He’s still not stopped

You can't stop him this way. He'll just sign up to a different vpn service, there are tons of free ones he can use (netflix blocks nord premium but not free hola - wtf?). Blocking IP will do nothing. You need to up your game.!If you want to strike back, you can bit it won't be cheap. Will it be worth the financial strain just to get the last laugh?

Code: 
inet6num:       2a00:23c0::/29
netname:        BTBROADBAND
Before you block IPv6 ranges, you should read about them and how are calculated, otherwise you will block everyone.
 
Thanks guys appreciate the quick replies . How do you mean strike back ? What do you suggest I do ? I do not want to get the last laugh - I just want them to stop and leave me alone, and the only way I can see is if I get concrete evidence to prove it’s them .

Problem is, it doesn't look like they are doing anything that seems explicitly illegal or against a tos? So it's difficult to get any kind of authority involved. You can utilise saas that will allow you to fingerprint the user. It doesn't seem like whoevers doing this will know how to circumvent this or iMm guessing they might be doing something more worthwhile to begin with.
