Google Search Console Sends Mysterious Notifications About New Owners

Google Search Console sent out notifications to users about new owners on their accounts, causing alarm and confusion. The emails were triggered by existing users who already had access, but the timing and reason behind it are unclear.

The issue seems to be a bug in Google's system, with some users reporting multiple incorrect notifications. One user reported receiving over two dozen notifications about new owners on their accounts, all of which were existing users.

Users took to social media platforms like Twitter and Reddit to share their experiences and speculate about the cause of the issue. Some joked that it might be a phishing campaign or that Google is 'smoking crack again.'
