Google+ Custom URL email request gave us time to do some research as we received two emails one is regular email and one for Google Apps for one person. Obviously, none of them are created deliberately – one is associated with AdWords, AdSense accounts and the another is this domain’s one email which is binded with Google Apps. It is quite obvious, only one was taken / claimed. Other email was not clicked to open. For experimentation, we opened the email’s url and found quite interesting things. The person for whom the emails were sent is my father.
