        Disavowing links via Google Search Console will communicate your intentions to Google, but would not necessarily update Moz's spam score.

        Instead, you'd need to actually get the offending links removed for them to update on Moz's spam score.

        Here's a great Moz article with a bit more detail:

        Hope this helps!
