Are these 404 to 301 notifications intrusion attempts?

    Good morning,
    I receive reports of broken links and I regularly manage the redirection with plug.in 404 to 301.
    But today I have received reports that have puzzled me because I could not understand why they come, as it seems, from my site. Why? Are these intrusion attempts since they are .zip files?
    However all these arrivals have been redirected, by default, to the home page of my site.
    I hope you can understand why.
    Thanks a lot,
    Dino Brandi
