I know that you can exclude certain URLs from the content network. What I do not know is how to figure out which ones it should be. I imagine it has to do with looking though your logs but I do not know what to look for exactly. If I have multiple landing pages would I have to look at a particular page and look at the referers? And then if I do see someone sent me alot of traffic is it just assumed if I have a crappy conversion that the one sending me the most traffic is probably the junky traffic or is there a way to be more precise?

You have to track each site separate so you know for sure where the 'crappy conversion' is coming from.

To reduce your risks you could do what I've done for folks which is to just identify the MFA sites the moment they start sending traffic. I use a simple script to go check new sites that show up in the tracking and if they match the pattern for a MFA then block it pronto :-)
