I don't know.  Maybe FB leases IP's to other services.  What I do know is that all of these bad requests are coming in from the 173..252.95.0/255 subnet, namely ...8-15, which all come up Facebook, Inc. on a whois.  I don't know whether we can take it for granted that it's FB systems that are using these IPs, and I can't see any SP metadata due to the fact that ALL of the requests coming from these IPs are failures; not a single valid one.
