Gmail hack attempt or just spam?

For more than a month, such requests have been received to confirm an account, or “invitations” for registration (I have never registered on these sites), with postscripts like “earn money here”, and so on.

Most emails go straight to spam, but some go straight to inbox. It’s annoying that this happens almost daily and that it’s not clear what you can do with it except send it to spam (it’s apparently useless to block these addresses, since other requests from other addresses still come). Is this just spam or a hack attempt and what can be done about it?

Spam. Hacking with this method is impossible (if you are smart enough not to follow the links).
Options:
1. Throw in spam.
2. Change mail.
If you still want to go:
1. You can go to the site through the tor.
2. If you are paranoid, you can log in via VM + anonymization tools / systems (kodachi, whonix)

More like an attempt to set up. Or yes, email bombing.

Spam.
It is treated with filters by keywords and senders and elementary digital hygiene (read, do not leave the main e-mail address anywhere, spam to which will interfere)
