Random deposit in my BTC wallet. Scam?

All Cryptocurrencies

So, I check my wallet today (ledger nano s) and I see a transaction that occurred Friday Jan 5th, a deposit of .00096715 BTC. Unless I am absolutely losing my mind, this wasn't me and I wasn't expecting a payment from anyone. I have no idea where it came from. Is this a scam of some kind? Is my wallet safe? can they access my funds somehow? I've heard of something like this with ERC-20 wallets. The transaction ID is a16a71dd98a4aec2f15587d2dc006f4b0e72f98daee47e25cb4ab756ec002e41 and the wallet address that sent it is bc1qq904ynep5mvwpjxdlyecgeupg22dm8am6cfvgq. On top of everything the network fee was .00038298. So, whoever it was spent $16.82 in fees to send me $42.49 again telling me that this isn't some transaction that I forgot about. Absolutely no way that I would spend $16.82 to send myself $42.49. Can anyone help me out with this? Find out who owns the wallet? I looked it up on Bitcoinwhoswho and it has been reported as a scam 7 times, so, if that website is legit, it's even more concerning. Thanks, I appreciate any insight you can give.
