I think it’s a strategy to get you to follow them back. I’ve had quite a few odd accounts request to follow me that I rejected. Usually accounts that were very specific and has zero relevance to my life or interests.

It happens sometimes. Depending on the details, you can report them as spam, just remove the follow, or ignore it.
In some cases it could also be people that genuinely want to follow you. People often talk about one topic but still care about other stuff.

Many people fall into that category. I follow a lot of interesting accounts that have nothing to do with what I talk about on my channel. Sometimes you follow people because they know more about a subject than you do, or are just interesting.
