Is this pests?

Question

So I just got this plant yesterday and Inoticed these brown speckles on some of the leaves. Is this a pest?! Or is it because the plant was somewhat neglected? #PestControl #GregGang #Greggers #TheThread #Syngonium

Are most of the leaves like that or is it just a few? Was the soil very moist when you got it?

@EcoPlantLover @Succulent_Soul  that looks like mechanical damage to me. The first one looks like something happened before the leaf unfurled. Possibly it got stuck opening due to low humidity or it got squished, but opened anyway. I say that because all the lines are even and roughly the same distance apart, so if you can see (in your minds eye 👀) a rolled up leaf getting a shallow scratch or being bent how that damage would look once opened up? The second picture just looks like post-unfurled leaf scratches or tears.
