Randomly getting notifications from other forums

It doesn't happen often but I've been getting random notifications periodically from other forums unrelated to mine. I got a notification about something in this forum: https://razorbladekisses.forumspark.net/ on my forum. I clicked on it and took me to a forum I was not allowed to see. Looking at that forum there are no posts according to the forum stats. I'm pretty sure it said something like someone made a post on that forum but I don't exactly remember. Maybe it meant it was created because it was just created today?

I'm not saying this is impossible, but that forum holds no data.

Do you recall which notification exactly and what link it precisely holds?

Also that forum was registered half an hour ago.

Maybe that's why the notification popped up, it was an error, and it showed up probably around that time. I don't recall but it took me specifically to the owner's profile after clicking on it. https://razorbladekisses.forumspark.net/users/killer-rabbiit

If it happens again I'll try to pay more attention and report it. It's happened 2-3 other times but it was on mobile and I didn't have time to click on it.

The notification should still be in your list. What forum did this happen on? Was it a toast or a notification from the dropdown?

Sorry for the confusion, I don't mean it was an alert in the drop down. I guess it was a toast. One of those popup notifications that show up and disappear after a few seconds.

Did it by any chance happen again? I've just registered a new board.

Also, it wasn't by any chance an official ForumSpark toast? I've recently implemented a broadcast channel for me to send out news to everyone in case there is an update. It's just a simple toast + notification being sent to the admins.

Didn't see one but they pop up so quickly, I may have missed it.

I don't think it was, it shouldn't have linked to that new forum if it was.

I've hardened the toasts. If by any chance you ever see this again, feel free to let me know.
