How to Report Spam Referrers in WordPress stats?

I suddenly started seeing a weird behavior of some referrers in a few of my wordpress website stats.

Each of them started to have an increasing non-proportional number of referrals.

After reading a little about the subject I realized that they are spam referrals and I better get rid of them as they distort my website stats.

I also realized that there is an easy way to tell wordpress stats to ignore these:

In the referrers list you will find 3 dots next to the views number. Right click on these 3 dots and you will have the show actions options that will lead you to the spam flag. Click on this flag and you are all set.
