'+' has special meaning to HTTP. It is the encoded form of a space
character, in places where reserved characters must be encoded in order to
be transmitted correctly.

Because it is supposed to be.

You have to specify it in its hex-encoded format, ie:
ClientId=%2B46705954365
"2B" is the 2-digit hex code of the "+" character.
The same rule goes for any other characters that HTTP reserves, such as '?'
and '#'.
