I'm kind of curious what websites give you a QR code to scan, but don't give you any link to click on. Have you seen if the QR image is a normal link, too?
I've seen sites do it during multifactor authentication scheme enrollment. I believe I encountered it on one of Google properties several years ago. Google even did something to ensure the QR code was unscannable once printed. If you wanted to use the QR code on two devices, you had to have both devices ready at the time of enrollment.
