I would just deny the friend request and that should take care of the other people you might know. Facebook does recommend friends and I have noticed that a lot of these people only have 1-2 mutual friends so it's a long shot that I actually know them.

I'd hit ignore-- occasionally I do get a spam friend request.
It may also be related to the e-mail address you've given. I made a separate e-mail for Facebook, but I briefly had my personal e-mail on there, and anyone I'd ever e-mailed came up as someone I might know, including businesses I'd e-mailed once when wedding planning. There were a few names that came up that I didn't recognize at first, because they were not people I'd think of as friends, or even acquaintances.
