thanks from user @robertklep for his solution.

We just after var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(); set xhr.setDisableHeaderCheck(true); as shown as:

var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.setDisableHeaderCheck(true);


$.ajax({
        url: myurl,
        method: 'GET',headers:{'Referer':MyWebsiteName}
        xhr: function() {
            return xhrOverride;
        })
