Last year, the company overhauled its Messenger service to get rid of the old system, which categories messages into ones that individuals may intend to see in an "Inbox" and also "Other". It switched it instead for the typical messages and a folder called "Message Requests"-- a location where unfamiliar people could ask to contact customers.

However there is still one more folder that maintains people from seeing every message they've been sent. The covert messages reside in a special folder called "Filtered Message Requests", and also the name describes that it appears to use technology to hide away messages that it thinks people don't want to see.

It can be found by opening the Messenger application and also going to the Settings tab near the bottom. There, you'll find a "People" option-- click that, pick "Message Requests" as well as choose the choice to see "filtered Requests".

The tool does typically properly identify spam, indicating that most of the important things you'll locate there are likely to be ads or scary, arbitrary messages.

However others have reported missing out on information about fatalities as well as Other essential events.
