“Request to Interview You”

I get emails like this pretty frequently. These are usually basically no-name websites or publications. Of course, I wouldn’t expect a large publication to ask to interview us.

We are a small business of ~10-20 employees.

The sending address is usually different from the actual website. E.g. the actual website is MadeInCa.ca.

Are these legit requests or scammers or people just trying to build up backlinks to their websites?

Has anyone actually done in the interviews?

E.g. emails here since I can’t seem to upload screenshots:
