    How do you approach them? Happens every now and then to me, but usually even the most random of requests makes some sense (i.e. poker related, live in the same city, play music, or generally have something in common).

    But today I check and see that this girl friended me and I have no idea who she is. I see that she's from Melbourne and lives in Boston. I'm from Pittsburgh and live in Brooklyn. I also see that she's extremely hot. So this makes no sense.

    Scam? Level? Spamming for an aspiring musical/acting/modeling career?

    I'd post the pic but I'm about to leave work so I'll try to update when I get back home. But think typical hot Australian girl. I'm thinking of just sending her a message being "wtf?", but I'm also thinking of friending now and asking questions later. Obviously would be able to see a lot more info about her once I'm her "friend", plus it's always good PR to be friends with random Australian hotties on facebook.

    If it is a chick, I accept w/o hesitation....

    If she's hot, why the fuck are you even asking us?

    If it's a dude, I usually try to find out who the fuck it is first.

    This is def my first reaction (no mutual friends). I'm typing this on my iPhone in a cab but her name is Bonnie and she's from Melbourne so you could prolly just find her to see pic. She's wearing sunglasses and bikini.
