Blackrocksrock Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I had a friend request tonight from some man I did not know and deleted it - why would I get this or how as I keep myself only to friends visable etc - does anyone else have this problem - I am not so keen to go on facebook again.

jess Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 You can no longer keep yourself completely invisible. Friend requests can either be set to friends of friends or everyone. And tho people can not search for you if you have a mutual friend they can see your main display picture. I think the settings are really rubbish. The man who added you could either have been a spammer or a random person who just likes adding random people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I have had that happen too . I reported it. It hasn't put me off FB though, it's easy to block/ignore people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted January 25, 2010 Author Share Posted January 25, 2010 Thank you for the replies - I did ignore him but was so puzzled and did not realise I was not "hidden" if you see what I mean!. I actually thought it was better than this - I would not like to have young people have this kind of think happen although I expect they would just ignore it and be done with it I have to laugh as my avatar is my cat sleeping and his comment was contented sleepy kitty!! I dont do me pictures! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 I used to get that on my blog until I went invisible except to those I invite. I used to get Facebook invites all the time, despite not having an account they seem to have stopped lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Some random person added me t'other day - i messaged them to ask who it was and ignored them. You can change your 'invisibility' in searches which might be an idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
