PHPMailer sends duplicate email

PHPMailer

<?php
    $mail = new PHPMailer;
    $mail->IsSMTP();
    $mail->IsHTML(true);
    $mail->SMTPSecure = "tls";
    $mail->Mailer = "smtp";
    $mail->Host = "smtp.office365.com";
    $mail->Port = 587;
    $mail->SMTPAuth = true; // turn on SMTP authentication
    $mail->Username = "xxx";
    $mail->Password = "xxx";
    $mail->setFrom('xxx', 'Website');

    //Send to Admin
    $AdminEmail = '[email protected]';
    $mail->AddAddress($AdminEmail, $AdminName);
    $mail->Subject  = "This is an email";
    $mail2 = clone $mail;
    $body = 'Hi Admin. This is an email';
    $mail->Body = $body;

    if(!$mail->Send()) {
    echo 'Message was not sent.';
    echo 'Mailer error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
    } else {
    echo 'Message has been sent.';
    }

    //Send to User
    $UserEmail = '[email protected]';
    $mail2->AddAddress($UserEmail, $UserName);
    $body2 = 'Hi User. This is an email';
    $mail2->Body = $body2;

    if(!$mail2->Send()) {
    echo 'Message was not sent.';
    echo 'Mailer error: ' . $mail2->ErrorInfo;
    } else {
    echo 'Message has been sent.';
    }
?>

I have an issue where when i send the emails, Admin will receive $mail and $mail2 when they supposed to just receive $mail. While there's no problem with User. Works fine by receiving $mail2. I've tried to put $mail->ClearAddresses(); but it's still the same. By chance, what is the problem?

Clone the email variable before adding the address and stuff of the admin. (As suggested in the comments)

You need to create different-different object for both admin and user email

//Send to Admin
$mail = new PHPMailer;
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$AdminEmail = '[email protected]';
$mail->AddAddress($AdminEmail, $AdminName);
$mail->Subject  = "This is an email";
$mail2 = clone $mail;
$body = 'Hi Admin. This is an email';
$mail->Body = $body;

if(!$mail->Send()) {
echo 'Message was not sent.';
echo 'Mailer error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo 'Message has been sent.';
}

//Send to User
$mail = new PHPMailer;
$mail->IsHTML(true);
$UserEmail = '[email protected]';
$mail->AddAddress($UserEmail, $UserName);
$body2 = 'Hi User. This is an email';
$mail->Body = $body2;

if(!$mail->Send()) {
echo 'Message was not sent.';
echo 'Mailer error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo 'Message has been sent.';
}
