The activity always contains a mention of the bot regardless of whether it was actually mentioned or not

Version

4.16.1

Describe the bug

It is basically the same issue than #2044

Expected behavior

I expect to only have a mention among the entities when the bot it is really mentioned

Additional context

Also, the bot only see messages that don't contains mentions or mention him directly, but if other user it's mentioned, it can see those messages, I don't even reach the bot

@jorgeajimenezl If you are still experiencing this problem; what bot Channel are you using? Telegram also?

@dmvtech Yes Telegram. I didn't check it again. Right now I'm solving it with this (this function is to know if the bot was mentioned in the message):

if activity.channel_id == "telegram":
    # TODO: https://github.com/microsoft/botframework-sdk/issues/6667
    try:
        entities = activity.channel_data["message"].get("entities")
        if not entities:
            return False
            
        for entity in entities:
            if entity.get("type") != "mention":
                continue
            offset = entity.get("offset")
            length = entity.get("length")
            return (
                activity.text[offset + 1 : offset + length]
                == conversation_reference.bot.id
            )
    except Exception:
        logger.warning("Telegram mention parsing failed", exc_info=True)
        return False

How is the bot set up on the Telegram/BotFather side? What is the privacy mode?

Are you mentioning it such as /comand@botname ?

We need more steps on how to reproduce this.
