How the hell they do this?
I got a notification from facebook.com today that this guy wants to be my friend.
I clicked on his name in the email. And it sent me to this login page.
there I noticed that this is not my email that I use to login to facebook.
Also why is it asking a password to me? My FB should be logged on.
Later I fifured out that if you're logged into FB clicking that link logs you out.
So they wanted me to enter my password using a secure https://facebook.com url.
Howz dat?

Ah at the bottom it reads "If you didn't create a facebook account using this email please let us know."
Somebody created an account with my gmail.
I reported it...Still strange. Why and how they did this?

i would turn off those FB email notifications, only deal with requests within FB itself
