Empty Google DMCA complaints? - GoFuckYourself.com

Has anyone started receiving empty DMCA complaints? I've received at least 5 this month. Instead of linking to Lumen, they include a link to Lumen's old URL (chillingeffects.org). This is what's displayed when following the link:

This is NOT a notice.
It is a PLACEHOLDER for a notice that is not yet available for viewing.
Do not request to view the URLs associated with this placeholder, there are none.

Lumen has recently received, from Google, notification of a removal request originally sent to Google. Once that removal request has been processed by Google, it will have its own unique ID number, URL, date and other associated information, and a copy of the request will be present within Lumen's database.

Thank you for your patience.

Kind of Work: Unspecified
Complaint TBD
URLs of original work: No copyrighted URLs were submitted.
Problematic URLs: No infringing URLs were submitted.

None of these empty complaints have been populated or updated. They remain empty weeks later. Accessing the provisional ID through LumenDatabase.org or doing a search for the URL in question doesn't solve the problem either, nor does searching Google itself and then clicking on the chilling effect notice. What gives? Has anyone experienced this before?

These are piling up and I have no means of responding, let alone knowing who's sending them or why!

Yes, full of these reports and all pointing to tags, categories with traffic.
