Random people visiting my Springfield

Weren't friend points called Frink before the friend prizes, like when you graffitied buildings. I think I remember that.

I brought this up before.....this has been happening to me for awhile now. I'm also getting "FRINK" a lot instead of a name. I freaked when it started happening, thinking these odd names were people getting logged into my town in error and were spending my donuts! But, that's not happening.......I never see the odd names come up when tapping handshakes. WEIRD!! And it's only happening in one of my towns.

OMG!!!! I wasn't going to say a name, but now that it's out, I'm going to...

I started my own thread, not realizing that another thread already exists. I was sent here by another member so that I could read the posts.

And now... I'm FREAKING OUT!!!

Today, I was visited by 'FRINK'!!!! You and I aren't neighbors, and with all the players there are, HOW IN THE WORLD could BOTH of us be visited by the same non-neighbor???

This is weird. Very, very weird!!! :shock:

Today "frink" visit me to :shock:

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Whoa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Four different players, same Frink?

@rmb256982 - Were they? I wonder if there's a way to find out. I'd feel much better, that's for sure!!! This is too much of a coincidence, don't you think? :(

I want to say that when you spray painted a building, or was it cleaning off graffiti, that it said "Frink".

Yep. Frink tagged Moe's twice today. I assume he's just trying to convince me that they're "Frink points," not "friend points." This after I added a couple of new neighbors in hopes of getting whacking day soon. Snakes! In my game!

It has nothing to do with friend points it's a glitch that happens alot and has been happening since before friend points were added. Its not a bad thing

I've just finished going through my town, clearing handshakes, and checking off my list, and I noticed that three more non-friends have visited my town.

How is this even possible? One of these non-friends had a screen name that implied he/she was having some sort of a contest with someone else. (There was only one handshake with that name, along with the 'Frink' graffiti. So, yes, it must be just a graffiti thing.)

I've never been able to visit a non-friend, so how are they visiting me?

It's incredibly aggravating. First of all, it takes tappable buildings away from my friends. And second, this is a security breech.

I don't like this at all. I don't even care for the 'help' I receive from these handshakes. Being able to tap on my buildings should be reserved for those friends on my list. If they're unable to tap on my buildings because a non-friend tapped on it, that means my friend will not be able to earn Friend Points.

NOT FAIR!!!!!

EA... please fix this!!!!!

VERY strange, indeed! :shock:

I get Frink now and again and have for a while, I thought it was a neighbour who somehow had two names. What I'm getting now is handshakes from neighbours I've deleted. Does anyone else get this?

But i think there is a connection when you or that outsider where friends before and at some point you/he (de)friend.

I can be visit but i can not visit non-friends.

My point exacly :shock:


Or guys i have ask to be friends and never add me, stil he can visit me, i think its something to do with Origin or something like that.

I really don't care that people are visiting my town regardless of if I'm neighbors with them or not. The part that is driving me insane is I'm getting notifications to my phone and I have notifications turned off.
Also I bought that cremo-bot or whatever it's called yesterday and I had no doughnut confirmation even though that's turned on too.

I continue to have at least two unknown people visit my Springfield, write on my walls and they are not on my neighbors list so I can't get rid of them or write on their walls. It's been going on, at least since I've paid attention to it, at least a month. EA can't help me - I've sent them two emails. What can I do?
