probably someone trying to track all your monies and link you as the underground kingping..
This keeps getting repeated but no one can explain how that would work.

These transactions do not make it to the block chain—they exist only in the mempool of servers for a temporary period as they never get confirmed. As such I do not see how they can link anyone to anything.

If you think otherwise, please can you explain how?

The transactions were visible for weeks even though they never confirmed.   They showed up on BlockChain.info and with software using the BlockChain.info API.
