i haven't clicked any of mine, but faking website login pages is pretty
much what i'd expect from this kind of spam; did you double-check the
URL was literally facebook.com?
another possibility — Yahoo is known to be recycling email addresses;
there are a lot of John Sessoms on Facebook, so perhaps one of them had
your email address a few years ago
I'll have to double check, but I'm pretty sure they are coming from
facebook.com. They seem like someone on Facebook has "tagged" me on
their own account, and Facebook keeps sending me these emails trying to
get me to join up.
It's the old "What part of 'NOT JUST NO, but HELL NO!' don't you
understand?"
I have received similar emails from LinkedIn occasionally, but at
least LinkedIn's emails tell me who gave them them my email address.
I've had that Yahoo email address since 1996.
