Google Talk experienced a tech problem this morning, which saw messages being delivered to the wrong recipients.

In some cases it was also found that users outside of their contact list were receiving the messages.

Google announced at 1.30pm: “The issue has been resolved and all services are gradually returning to normal.”

However, the company is still investigating the issue, which comes just three days after a problem with Gmail.
