If you are providing affiliate links to another site, or anything similar, the links need to either have the "nofollow" attribute applied or be 302 redirected. The major affiliate programs I am aware of do such.

RE: Does anyone have any suggestions on removing spammy links?
Will changing this links with my url or brand will help? or should I delete them all ?
If you built manipulative links to your site, my recommendation would be to delete them.
If you modify the links to change the anchor text, you MAY fool the Penguin algorithm in the short run. I strongly believe Google will update Penguin in a similar manner as to how they have updated Panda over the past 2 years. If that happens, Google will incorporate signals other then anchor text and you will be in the same situation in a short period of time.
