Surprise! There’s a secret hidden other OTHER Facebook message folder that none of us knew about until… yesterday. Turns out, while you have your main message inbox, and the “message requests” tab that lets you see messages from those you aren’t directly connected to on Facebook, there’s a THIRD inbox as well. This third inbox is a “filtered” inbox, where Facebook has taken the liberty to sort messages into spam all by itself.
The process to find your “secret admirers”.
Then BOOM… you see your admirers or creepsters everywhere.
There’s a secret hidden Facebook inbox. Devastated to miss message from Godzilla!!! in 2009 https://t.co/7510jh106S pic.twitter.com/Fbej7TCRP4

My secret Facebook inbox is literally just robots telling me I’m pretty and a girl from 2014 accusing me of sleeping w/ her boyfriend.

This filtered messages scandal is the perfect excuse for all the times I just ignored people when they wrote me. #thanksfacebook #nofilter
