I get them all the time. Just ignore them and delete.
NEVER NEVER click on the links as they can immediately identify your email address and can tell it's 'live'.
For the same reason never open the email. These days they can put graphics in the email which can contain viruses and/or auto links to their website. Just by opening the email you can compromise your email address.
Best practice is never open any emails where you do not recognise the sender.
