Other automated crawlers
EchoboxBot is a bot operated by Echobox that crawls the web automatically. Supports company's AI-powered social and email management products. No IP range list or reverse-DNS convention is published, so a request carrying this user agent cannot be proven genuine and a robots.txt rule alone will not stop a forgery.

Allow: /User-agent: EchoboxBot
Allow: /
Disallow: /account/
Disallow: /checkout/
Disallow: /searchEdit the Disallow paths to match your own URLs.
Blocking EchoboxBot stops this specific token. Check your logs afterwards, because operators that ignore robots.txt often come back under a different name.

EchoboxBot is a bot operated by Echobox that crawls the web automatically. Supports company's AI-powered social and email management products. No IP range list or reverse-DNS convention is published, so a request carrying this user agent cannot be proven genuine and a robots.txt rule alone will not stop a forgery.
Not documented. No operator statement says whether EchoboxBot reads robots.txt, so add the rule but verify in your logs that the requests actually stop.
You cannot, at least not from the request itself. No IP range file and no reverse-DNS convention have been published for this agent. The user-agent string is the only signal, and any client can send it, so treat a match as a claim rather than proof. Compare the source IP against hosting and datacenter ranges instead, and rate limit anything that behaves like a crawler.
Add the EchoboxBot token to robots.txt with Disallow: /. If the crawler ignores robots.txt, match the user agent at your CDN or reverse proxy and return 403 there instead.
Blocking EchoboxBot stops this specific token. Check your logs afterwards, because operators that ignore robots.txt often come back under a different name.
