Weird pop message from lichess

As open Lichess, there was a message. "Almost there 'saint_sona' check your email "ijh***@gmail.com" I am not sure, why did I get that message.
BTW I am not sure with username and email address spelling. And those don't belong to me.
I guess, something weird happening with lichess cookies/session ...
Saw some message like this also sometime ago, i think even multiple times and different emails.
Was also logged off. Will check and note if I see it again next time.
Sounds like malware. Run one of the reputable free malware scanners. Trend Micro / Avast / Malwarebytes etc.

(Edit - suggestion above was to @CarvedBoat not @thibault )
That is exactly what I got with different username and email. @butterfli
Thanks for the screenshot. It is always good to have a screenshot.
It's a display caching bug, no consequences, I have a fix ready, will deploy later.
