"If you have someone's mobile stored in your smartphone they track you. "
You only need the number to have been dialled or texted from your phone not saved. It is one of the permissions you sign up to with Facebook esp on an application for a phone as it won't work without said permission. |

I don't have my phone number on my Facebook & Fabbers still show up. Wonde if it's somehow connected to the email I've signed up with instead.  |

9/10 of my people you may know are this at the moment ... or people ive chatted to on pof or something ... most i dont have their number anymore ... so whoever said you only need to have called or text not stored it this must be right
the ones i dont understand are the ones ive never swapped numbers with and have no one in common with ... i also have a different email on here and facebook
big brother is taking over! |

It doesn't need your mobile number to track you, it's to do with location services. If you are an FB user and location services are on, FB tracks your GPS location. If you spend any significant length of time at the same GPS location as another FB user on fab, either at a meet or a club like CJs, FB will cross reference that location and add those folk to your 'people you may know' list.
If you don't want them popping up, or sending invites, make sure your FB has location services set to 'never'. |

Facebook bought WhatsApp and are the same company, your contacts are some way connected through Facebook chat programme Messenger.if it's a phone number inserted into messenger it will suggest friends in Facebook... |

That's why you keep Faceache and Fab separate.
I use different phones and email addresses on both.
My vanilla phone is linked to Facebook what's app etc
I have a play phone for FAB |

Think it's because you have there number maybe you've chatted on whatsapp aswell it's not due to fab .... Facebook uses your phone contacts to suggest friends so maybe that's why ! Facebook is a terrible thing!!! I'd get it to fuck if I were you mate ... Why do you want to boast about your live and have nosey bastards knowing your business? I don't understand why people have it |
