Attaching already existing attachments to message

Hello there. So, as the title suggests, I want to attach already-existing message attachments on a new message. I am making a

messageDelete

messageDelete

event handler and I want to attach any files that have been deleted to the log message. Here is the code that I have so far:

Cog.add = new Event("messageDelete", async (message) => {
    if (!logChannel) {logChannel = await message.client.channels.fetch(logChannelId)}
    if (message.author.bot) {return}

    const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setAuthor({name: message.author.tag, iconURL: await message.author.displayAvatarURL()})
        .setTitle("Message Deleted")
        .setDescription(`**Message sent by ${message.author} deleted in ${message.channel}**${(message.content) ? ":\n" + message.content : "."}`)
        .setColor("#ca1919")
        .setTimestamp()

    await logChannel.send({embeds: [embed, ...message.embeds], files: [...message.attachments], stickers: [...message.stickers]})
})

Cog.add = new Event("messageDelete", async (message) => {
    if (!logChannel) {logChannel = await message.client.channels.fetch(logChannelId)}
    if (message.author.bot) {return}

    const embed = new EmbedBuilder()
        .setAuthor({name: message.author.tag, iconURL: await message.author.displayAvatarURL()})
        .setTitle("Message Deleted")
        .setDescription(`**Message sent by ${message.author} deleted in ${message.channel}**${(message.content) ? ":\n" + message.content : "."}`)
        .setColor("#ca1919")
        .setTimestamp()

    await logChannel.send({embeds: [embed, ...message.embeds], files: [...message.attachments], stickers: [...message.stickers]})
})

Now, when I delete a message with an image attached, I get the following error:

TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'path')

I really don't understand why this is a problem. I did think that it might be because I am not using an

AttachmentBuilder

AttachmentBuilder

, but the wiki clearly states that

Array <Attachment>

Array <Attachment>

is also a viable option for the

files

files

argument. If someone could help me, that would be awesome. Thank you for your time and help, it is truly appreciated.
