The problem is that .Chatted does not have speaker and message. It only has message.

Your fixed script would be:
1 | for i,currentPlayersChatting in pairs(game:GetService("Players"):GetPlayers()) do |
2 | currentPlayersChatting.Chatted:Connect(function(msg) |
3 | if string.lower(msg) == "walter" then |
4 | print(currentPlayersChatting.Name) |
5 | end |
6 | end) |
7 | end |
Also, keep in mind how .Chatted works is like this:
PlayerInstance.Chatted.
