Tons of Referer Spam Lately (Brazil Especially)

Has anyone else noticed tons of referer spam lately? The one I've noticed the most comes from musicas.baixar-musicas-gratis.com

... but as of a week ago I'm getting referer spam from random websites in countries like Austria, Colombia, and Italy. I have noticed this referer spam across 10 different websites that are hosted on different servers, so it can't be just me!

We've been getting reports of this recently in support email too but so far not much pattern other than a few domains such as the one mentioned here. So just now I've added this domain and 'buttons-for-website.com' (requested from another thread) to the wildcard match block list.

Most of the ones we've seen though have been for completely random domains that are constantly changing and no easily discernible patterns that would let us easily block them. Someone suggested we add a crowd-sourced list so new domains can get added automatically. That's something we'll consider doing really soon.

If there are any other recurring domains that you're seeing in your stats and are obviously spam, post them in here too or email them to us.

I'll add rankings-analytics.com and myip.ms as soon as I'm done with my current code branch, later this week. the tcpiputils.com one doesn't look like spam though.
