Weird Facebook bug sees old chat messages pop up for users

A strange Facebook problem has seen users confronted with the past.

People have reported a weird bug where old chat messages, some from years ago, are popping up again through Messenger's tabs.

The issue is particularly troubling for certain users who have seen from messages from loved ones who have passed away, or from people they haven't spoken to in a long time.

Thank you @facebook for sending me notifications of messages sent over a year old. Many were from the day my partner, Dean, passed away & now I've spent my evening in fear of what else I'm going to see.
