Spooky +1 Oddity With Unverified Pages

[Colan Nielsen]

Seeing some very strange stuff with unclaimed pages today. Check out the similar +1 box on all these pages:









Anyone else seeing this?

My spidey sense tells me it's related to this - http://www.localsearchforum.com/google-local/37988-bug-impacting-google-my-business.html

Thanks for reporting Colan!

Added it to our #googlebug hashtag, which thankfully has not seen much action for awhile.

I agree it's probably related to the one Joy reported yesterday:
<a href="http://www.localsearchforum.com/google-local/37988-bug-impacting-google-my-business.html" target="_blank">Bug Impacting Google My Business</a>

FYI all - Joy & Colan escalated both of these issues to Google.

And the number of +1's continues to climb..



So very odd.

I'm sure you saw Mike's post which sounds more related to the issue Joy brought up yesterday.

From Mike:

But with all these sudden bugs, my spidey senses are saying back end update of some kind.
