Facebook App Shows Notification But None There

I was doing my common early morning regimen last Sunday (June 19) when I located something odd regarding my Facebook account: I'm getting alerts from people I don't recognize.

With all the existing goings-on about hacking and such, I ought to have double-checked my accounts to make sure that I might least safeguard them from invasion.
