Why can't I open an attachment via iMessage but can via SMS?

[iMore Question]

I am having an issue opening an attachment someone sends me in an iMessage - specifically a contact card. I can open an attachment from a text, just not an iMessage. Any ideas on how to fix this?? Thank you!

Are you receiving both types of messages and can only open the attachment on SMS? Trying turning iMessage off and reboot your phone and turn iMessage back on again to see if this makes a difference.
