Unable to block all subdomains of spammy urls

My site is getting spammed by lots of different blogspot urls (such as http://somespammyurl.blogspot.com.br), but I can't figure out how to block them, I tried:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http(s)?://(www\.)?.blogspot.co.id.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http(s)?://(www\.)?.blogspot.bg.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http(s)?://(www\.)?.blogspot.ru.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http(s)?://(www\.)?.blogspot.com.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http(s)?://(www\.)?.blogspot.com.br.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* - [F]

but in my raw logs I still see spammy urls with http/1.0/ 200, which I'm assuming means they are getting through, because if I specify the exact whole url of one of the spamming urls in the htaccess, the raw log line says http/1.0" 500 for that url. Can anyone shed some light why those lines aren't blocking all *.blogspot.co.id for example?

Is there a way to simply block all:

.blogspot.

because I'm getting blogspot.pt, blogspot.eu and all sorts.

To block all .*blogspot referers, you can use :

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^https?://(www\.)?.+blogspot [NC]
RewriteRule ^ - [F,L]

Your existing rules dont match the referer string http://www.blogspot because of the extra dot infront of .blogspot in your cond pattern.
