In the last little while, i've received friend requests from 'people' on facebook. Really, the requests come from an organization like my local rock climbing club. The account was setup by a person who is an officer of the club and wanted to get the club on facebook. So, that person created a facebook account as if the group was an actual person. It was then that i received the friend request.
For anyone trying to do this same kind of thing, don't do it! Actually, don't do it that way. Actual accounts are for real people not organizations. If you have an organization and you want a presence on facebook, create a page. The page can contain information about the group and has a wall. Instead of friends, the page gets followers. The page is administered initially by the person that created it. The creator can then add officers that have varying levels of permission to do stuff on the page.
