Trusted List request strangeness

This morning I received a Trusted List request from a Project.  I clicked on the link contained in the email so as to add them to the Trusted List and was taken to a page named 'WikiTree Invitation Processing' and an error message 'Invalid Invitation (inv_id doesn't exist).'  

So I went to the requested profile and looked at its Trusted List - yet there they were! What happened?

Are there several Profile Managers? Maybe another one accepted their request before you did?

No, there's only me as PM.  It's a Living Notable profile which is not yet visible to other WT members.

Hi Ros - I'd be willing to bet it was me, and there was some weirdness going on that kept switching my personal and my project accounts so that I was getting confused as to whether I had sent a TL request from me or the project (or both). So I suspect I deleted the request once I saw it was a duplicate, or something along those lines.

I usually use Chrome for my personal WikiTree-ing and Edge for Notables, and I kept checking and suddenly Chrome had the project account and Edge had my personal one. I really don't understand it, but once I realized it was happening, I deleted several of those that were sent incorrectly. My apologies for the confusion...
