      I have several backlinks with high spam scores. The anchor text as listed is either just a period, or it says there is no anchor text. These links don't generate traffic and there is no way for me to contact the website owner. Is this a case for the Search Console Disavow Tool?

        Recently I faced the same issue for one of my client and yes! you're right about the Search Console Disavow Tool.
        Well.. that helped me! I hope it helps you too.
