How can I get rid of spam backlinks that could be affecting my company's SERP?
I have seen many suspicious backlinks listed in my Google search console links section. Many of them not made by me. It is observed that they are affecting SERP. What is the best option to get rid of them, other than link disowning?

Back links play a critical role in optimizing a web page/website. There is a misconception that if the number of back links are more than the score of SEO increases. Its not true ..... the truth is that If we have a good back link juice then the score of SEO will absolutely increase in a day or couple of days. If any website or webpage is affected with spam back links then they can get rid of them through a process known as LINK DISAVOW . It means that saying to web masters that this is not the link related to me and and please avoid considering this link . This way u can report the spam links.

Simply report those links to Google and yeah the other best option is using Google Disavow Tool that will disavow those backlinks.

Hello Imran!
Google doesn't provide any other options other disavowing those spammy links. As you are seeing it in Google Search Console, link disavowing would be the best option here.
