When I press on some message to forward it, it shows me Random usernames of contacts I don’t know. And it even shows some Mobile Numbers I don’t know. For example, one number starts with +964 that’s Iraq. I’m from Europe tho. These contacts and numbers are from all over the place.
Edit: This only happens on Signal Desktop. If I try to forward a message on Android it only shows my Contacts. And none of these unkown ones.
Has anyone else been able to reproduce this? I just tried and was not able to.
OP, is it possible these people were in group chats you were part of?
I still don’t see any bug report anyone can follow up on… I cannot trust OP’s experience until that’s linked here.
The bug report forum from Signal doesn’t give you any link.
No, they are not. I’m in two groups. None of them are in the groups. I only use Signal for Real life friends from my Country. I never joined any random group. These people are from all over the world.
Group chats very likely. There are often sync issues from mobile, so these may just be old spam or group chat numbers.
