How to stop fake referrer traffic spam in WordPress

Viewed 27

I am running a WordPress website and have good traffic. But for some days I am receiving high traffic that is being sent from fake referrers. And I am really losing my all ranking keywords from Google. Even I have already lost many of my keywords because of these spam referrer attacks.

The fake referrer is not a website instead it shows "-1" as a referrer from where I am receiving traffic. I have tried searching on Google about this "-1 referrer" but I couldn't find anything that can fix it.

I will attach a screenshot below as well.

Please somebody help me so that I can stop this fake referrer, and I can regain my Google rankings. Please help me.

This is the image of the fake referrer:

Note: I am using the Jetpack plugin for my website statistics.
