#3 Social Networking Scam
Facebook is the most feasible option to connect with someone! One place where you put up all your details about the social life which also makes you vulnerable to some serious problems!
How many times have you just approved a friend request looking at the count of mutual friends? Even if you don't really know someone, you might end up approving their request just coz you have 20+ mutual friends. Right?
#2 Multiple Accounts

#1 Data Mining?
There are about 34 accounts of this lady. Probable reasons for this kind of friend-hunting can be possibly data mining or advertising, but whatever it is, having her on your friend list is leaking out your personal details to a complete stranger. Hence, it is advised, if she's on your list, unfriend her RIGHT NOW!
