Most likely spammers trying to advertise a scamsite. Normal services and companies don't use spam as a way of advertising.

Google the address it came from or search this forum with it. It's nothing to worry about. Are you sure its not a faucet payout or something? At the least it'll just be spam. If you post the tx id people might be able to help you though.

no need for googling. these things have a comment with them. check the tx on blockchain.info to see the comment (ad)
