I have received many "friends" who have accepted my request when I don't know them, let alone requested their friendship! What are the possible explanations for this? Am I getting hacked? This has happened numerous times.

Best Answer
You can see pending friend requests now through Facebook without any extensions or add-ons. Click on the friend request icon next to your messages and notification icons and then click the link at the bottom that says "see all". When that pages loads you should see a link that says "View Sent Requests" and you can view them all there.
As others have said, it would be a good decision to change your password. I would also add that you should go into your apps (settings gear> account settings> apps [left sidebar]) and see if there's anything suspicious or that you don't remember and if so click "edit" then "remove app."
