It's happened to me a few times and just now - twice in the past week. People who I have NO mutual friends with and have no clue who they are.

Oh, I'm SURE this is usually it. It's just weird to get 2 in one week.
And I absolutely deny.

No, I think my privacy settings don't allow requests from everyone.

I used to when I was in uni. I guess my privacy settings were lower. I got a request and a message one day from a guy saying 'Damn Meg why you still single?'. We had no mutual friends.

Google your name. Is someone in the news that has your same name or something?

Only a couple of times a year, but like pp, I always deny.
Back in the MySpace days? It was like swatting flies away. LOL.

H got one and accepted, and it turned out to be an adult encounters lady, so he deleted her right away.
At least that's what he told me. LOL.
