I have received bogus friend requests from bogus fb accounts about 10 times since i've been on facebook. (8 years). Some even go as far as friending people I am friends with and liking things that I'm liking or being from my home town. Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between a fake account and just a really bizarre person. Usually you can spot a fake from lack of interaction with other people on their timeline. That is not to say that elaborate fakes haven't been creating bogus friend networks. It would be an interesting project to collect the fb_ids from all these potentially bogus accounts, though it would be best to get the info that is surely private, like login times/locations. I'm sure the people in quality assurance at facebook are all over this.
