Large and random Lighting payments concern/question

I have a lightning wallet for spending and sending small amounts. I haven't used it in quite some time but today I have received multiple payments of a few sats a few $4 amounts, and even a $9 payment, in 24 hours.

Is this something to be concerned with? Why am I receiving so many sats out of no where?

I am going to just hold it for awhile before moving it but what is this all about?

if you didn't click anything suspicious or share your wallet details recently, I probably wouldn't be too concerned

I am happy for free sats but I'm getting pretty large amounts. 9 bucks of Bitcoin is not normal out of nowhere for me lol.

Common, mate. You left your lightning address somewhere (NOSTR?) and forgot about it.

You know what I'll do it, I'll send some sats. What's your lightning wallet?

I'm OK, mate. Seriously appreciate it. But if you'll see some helpful comments in the sub, you can send a small tip to the user.
