You wont ever see that packet, it is the one from the squatter's server to some
random web browser.

your only bet is to have your website give a 401 to someone who has the
squatter's domain as the http referrer value.

>From what i can see, this is what happens.

1. web user goes to http://www.groupdanone.com
2. server at www.groupdanone.com responds with a http 301 moved to the web user
3. web user then goes to www.nestle.com

at step 3 all genuine traffic (not web robots etc) will have a referrer value
as the URL of the page that sent them to www.nestle.com, in this case it would
have http://www.groupdanone.com as this value,

you need make the content software (i assume you are using some) on www.nestle.com
respond with either a error 404 or a 301 redirect to the genuine danone site.
