While Cloudflare can't definitively *detect* MAC address spoofing, it can identify inconsistencies and anomalies. For example, if a MAC address suddenly appears from a geographically distant location, or if it's associated with a different IP address than previously observed, it can raise a red flag and trigger further scrutiny. It's part of a broader risk assessment.
