Facebook Messenger is introducing a new feature on that gives you bits of information about someone messaging you for the first time, whether the person is one of your Facebook friends or not.

>> The Messenger team is rolling it out to iOS and Android users in the U.S., UK, France and India over the next few weeks.

>> When someone messages you for the first time, Messenger plucks bits of information from their Facebook profile, like what their job is, which town or city they live in, and who your mutual friends are (if you have any), then displays that info above their first message, alongside their profile name and photo,...

>> And if you and the other person aren't actually friends on Facebook — then only publicly available information on your profiles is used.
