⚜️ There's a common situation that leads people to think that friend requests that aren't from you mean you're hacked. They're wrong.

⚜️ Friend requests don't indicate a hack
You can’t friend request your existing friends. Any friend requests your friends see are from impersonation accounts. Your friends should not accept the friend requests, and report the fake accounts to Facebook. Hackers seem to use this technique to eventually impersonate you and attempt to scam your friends.
