no way it was actually a picture of me(snap shot ) how would I steal it from her 
,her picture didn't appear in the contact information but in the contact information that belongs to MsgPlus only .

anyone have a clue how that happened

If the contact doesn't have a display picture, plus seams to randomly choose one from messengers cache of display pictures. And you're old DP would probably be in that cache, therefore it would have used that one.
So yes, a bit of a bug

No, only you should see that picture, and the display picture should change back when she goes online.
