Please Confirm Your Identity On Facebook? Why Does This Happen?

The major purpose of this is to confirm you are whom you are logged in as.Recently there have been many cases on Facebook of people being hacked, or ‘fraped’, by people hacking into their accounts.

The security checks employ many ways to confirm your logged-in identity, such as identifying the people in a couple of your photos, answering some details and about yourself displayed on your profile page. It is believed that Facebook has CIA and NSA funding. Many in the intelligence community believe that Facebook is putting together a biometric facial recognition database.

In the margins of Facebook pages, users are asked to identify random faces that haven't been ‘tagged’. The function of this is to help fill in gaps in the your posted and tagged photos.  Many users tag other users' faces to pictures they want them to see, as well as tagging themselves to be viewed by their friend.  Asking users to identify friends in their own photos is a means of cross-referencing the integrity of their data, as well as checking the user’s identity.

Just think of your bank's software - if your account is compromised, you are not put through odd paces to identify yourself.  Issues like these further the growing concern that Facebook's security is weak and their intentions might not serve their users.

They do that to ensure that new accounts are created by actual people - otherwise bots could create multiple profiles and post spam all over Facebook.
