Hyderabad: Unknowingly, did anyone accept the friend request that you did not send or get friend requests from strangers? Well, you need not worry; your Facebook did not get hacked. Yes, it is a Facebook technical glitch. Meta fixed the Facebook bug that sent automatic friend requests, and it apologised for the inconvenience. A Meta spokesperson said, “We resolved an issue with a recent software version that led to some Facebook friend requests being sent automatically.” We apologise for any trouble this may have caused, and we have put a stop to this.”
Several users reported the problem on social media platforms. According to reports, the flaw was caused by a recent upgrade to the Facebook program, which automatically sent friend requests when a user visited a profile.
