If I get a friend request from someone I've not spoken to. I check to see if they have friend pictures, if they do I wait until they have been offline for at least an hour.
Then I add them, look at their pictures, remove them, then block them.
(Unless they really tick all my boxes - very rarely)
Anyone else have other techniques other than just the standard delete request then block?
I like my way as I feels like I'm doing to them exactly what they were trying to do to me. Also, I get to see if they're one of the creepy list I've already blocked, trying to troll or catfish me.

I also leave them where they are to stop them rerequesting.
I only have people I have met in person on my friends list these days. Experience has taught me that this is the best way for me. |

"I just leave them where they are
It stops them re-requesting and if I know them or are chatting to them, when I friend request them it auto accepts "
This is my preferred technique - it is almost a ’soft’ block  |

I delete them as they get lost in the sea of requests, just because I'm not ready to chat to them today, doesn't mean I wouldn't chat to them in the future. Any I really like I hotlist for later on |
