I think most websites that rank for anything remotely competitive will receive these sorts of backlinks. They're linking to you so that they show up in your backlink report, which then gets you curious about what they are, and click through to their website trying to sell you more links. It's a shotgun approach to marketing to marketers.

Sounds like spammy backlinks. It’s good to check if they are hurting your site and maybe use disavow tool if needed. Hope someone can help you identify them!

i agree with this. I weekly receive similar report from ahrefs. Some webmaster is linking my sites from similar 100-200 domains and sellling links via telegram. These links disapper later. Google doesn't care and neither do I.

If the links disappear by themselves then you have nothing to worry!
