A "random Snapchat add" refers to receiving friend requests on Snapchat from people you don't know and haven't explicitly sought out. This is a common experience on the platform, stemming from several potential sources.
Suggestions based on contacts: Snapchat uses your phone's contact list to suggest friends. If someone has your phone number saved, Snapchat may suggest you to them, and vice versa, even if you don't know them personally. This could happen if you've given your number out for business purposes, filled out online forms, or if someone simply mistyped a number. This is related to the Snapchat's%20algorithm.
Quick Add feature: The Quick Add feature shows users a list of suggested friends based on mutual friends, groups you're in, or other connections Snapchat infers. It aims to help people expand their network, but often results in suggestions of individuals you've never met. This is related to Quick%20Add.
Shared groups or events: If you and a stranger are both members of the same Snapchat group or attended the same event (even if you weren't actively interacting), Snapchat might suggest you add each other.
Accidental Adds: People sometimes accidentally add the wrong person due to similar usernames or simply by tapping the wrong profile.
Spam/Bots: While less common than genuine suggestions, some random adds may originate from spam accounts or bots trying to promote something or collect information. These are usually obvious because they have generic usernames or no profile picture. This is related to Spam%20accounts.
It's important to be cautious about accepting random friend requests on Snapchat. Only add people you know and trust to protect your privacy and avoid potential risks associated with interacting with strangers online.
