The social network is reportedly developing a new feature that would let users of its Facebook Messenger app send and receive money.

Security researcher Andrew Aude has found the new feature embedded in the existing smartphone app and, he claims, all that Facebook would need to do is activate it for it to go live within Messenger. “With Facebook Messenger, you attach money just like you attach a photo or a location,” said the Stanford University student who discovered the service buried in the current Facebook Messenger iPhone app. “You don’t even have to link a bank account!”
