Random people visiting my Springfield
Yes. Yesterday, I noticed I'd been visited by a former neighbor I'd dropped.

Has anyone has this happen to them? Recently I've had random people visit my Springfield, and I'd get notifications about it too. I don't have any of them added on my friends list and I have never seen any of these names in my life.
I have screenshots too if anyone wants lol.
There are 2 situations that I know of that do cause this ...
1) a neighbor changes their screen name ... I've done it just for fun ... as far as I can tell, you can change your screen name as many times as you want using the Origin client
2) a player gets the "wrong" Springfield when they login ... if you log in using your proper Origin ID, and the EA serves you the wrong Springfield, you then will see the neighbor list of that player, and you can visit and tap all those neighbors, but any taps you do will register under your userid, and not the userid of the player who owns that SF that EA logged you into. So ... what may be happening is someone who is not your neighbor has been incorrectly logged in to one of your neighbors SF's, and so they tap you as a neighbor SF but the handshake you see has the Origin userid of the actual player who tapped you and who is not your neighbor. Got it? Good!
