I was randomly added to a group conversation [Viber], how is it possible?

[Windows Central Question]

Hi, I just open my viber and saw that i was added to a group conversation which is really weird because someone added me to that same group on facebook too. My facebook and viber account aren't even connected plus the person who added me to that group or anyone in that group don't even have my phone number. How is this possible?

Re: I was randomly added to a group conversation

Who knows?
Do you know some of these people or are they complete strangers?
How you know for sure they do not have your phone number? (There is more personal information on the web then you may think.)
Maybe they added you by accident because the person who added you made a mistake with the phone number. (So he/she did not want to add you but someone else.)
Why not ask the person who added you?
But you always can leave the group.

No, they are not complete strangers, they were from my high school and they are on my facebook... all those people are overseas. I know they don't have my contact information because I never gave them and this is a new number. It is strange since it can't be an accident. The same thing has happened to one of my Facebook friends too. The same day she was added to the facebook group her viber got added to that group conversation too. And now some of them send me facebook messages asking that if that's my phone number :eck: .. I haven't talked to the person who created that group in 5 or 6 years.
