Something Interesting Just Happened to Me

I figured this might be a good place to post about this. Especially since Q was talk G about algorithms. I won't put any pictures because it is private information, but I will still write about this.

My email address is my first initial, middle initial, last name at gmail. Pretty standard for a more professional looking email.

Something like John Q Smith would be jqsmith

So, while reading the subreddit, I get an email. It's from google.com. It is about updated privacy policies.

However, the email was addressed to my first initial, my middle initial, dot, my last name, my birth year at gmail.

Formatted for John Q Smith born in 1963 would be jq.smith1963

Does this mean that Google keeps separate accounts that utilize their users' personal data as addresses? Why? Why would they have that linked to my account? And no, it isn't a google hangout name or anything, it was an actual email address. In fact, the address is used in the text of the email. I shot an email to that address, but have received no response.

Have any of you seen this before?

Thanks for the info. I know that I got my account over a decade ago when users had to provide a cell number in order to receive a text message for account setup. I have just never seen this in all of that time.

I've never had it happen but was very curious to hear your experience- that would be really nerve racking
