When Google Search Console Verify Fix Works Without Fixing Anything - Search Engine Roundtable

Did you ever get an email from Google Search Console that asks you to take an action to fix an issue and then click the "verify fix" button? Well, did you ever just click that you fixed the issue, without actually implementing any fixes or changes?
