• receiving an instruction to generate a user-targeting alert notification based on an existing communication message;
• determining that a body of the existing communication message contains information indicating at least one target user in a designated format;
• automatically adding, by the computing device, the at least one target user as a recipient of the user-targeting alert notification;
• and
• sending the user-targeting alert notification to the recipient.

• a set of processors;
• and
• a non-transitory computer-readable medium coupled to the set of processors storing instructions thereon that, when executed by the processors, cause the processors to perform a method for generating user-targeting alert notifications, the method comprising:
• receiving an instruction to generate a user-targeting alert notification based on an existing communication message;
• determining that a body of the existing communication message contains information indicating at least one target user in a designated format;
