They are from scammers who pretend that they are sending from Facebook. The real FB has your email. They don't need to confirm it again. My advice is to ignore all emails from "Facebook." If you really are curious about these emails, hover your mouse over the sender's email address and check the url. It is usually on the lower left of your browser if you are using Firefox. The scammers will try to fool you with an email that looks like it came from Facebook. For example -- http://www.facebook.com-password-reset.com/$3o0uag0/tracking-&&((9. AVOID those like the plague!
