Get users current location from Facebook messenger Chatbot api

Question

I am working on fb messenger bot and I want to access user's current location without them sending it as an attachment.I tried to get user's current location from fb graph API but it seems like to return the user's location from their profile. I need something like real time geo coordinates.

Thanks in Advance!
