Someone done negative seo on my site.

I was using joomla as a CMS. before 5 days I have moved the site from joomla to static site.
On joomla site I was using a plugin called easy blog. Someone posted many articles about nude, sex with easy blog. I just checked in the ahrefs, 100 + links coming to the pages with the word nude, actress name nude etc.
The page is for example : sitename .com/component/easyblog/entry/article title.html

Now I do not use joomla. And the link above are not live. But it will affect site? current site Domain rank is 35, Domain authority is 40 and page rank is 2. My site is ranking good for many keywords.
It will affect the site now? Should I remove these backlinks? How ?

Go to Your Google webmaster tool and disavow the links.

Yes I think you should take disavow process and with time goes your website will be fine, don't worry

You can use Google Disavow links feature to remove spam links and before you use it you can watch this Matt Cutts video

Still shocking anyone recommends using the disavow tool, especially on this forum. It's a waste of your time. The tool does not work which is why Google tells you to remove the links before every disavowing. If the disavow tool actually worked, can you imagine the abuse of the tool and how you could take pagerank sculpting to a new level? This would take SEO to a new level by having Google provide a backdoor ripe for manipulation.

Next step, try and get the links removed. More often than not the sites linking to sex related keywords don't intentionally want to. They often don't know. Get in contact with the site owners and remove them.

Going to disavow links. Lets see what happens.
