I got an alert today for a post that was made by another user.

I didn't even contribute to the thread.

Bit odd?
 
I'd imagine someone quoted a post from a different thread in error, saw the error after they posted and then edited their post to remove the quote. But the alert had already been created at that stage.
 
I looked at that post which Thirsty got the alert, toggling on the BB Code you can see the poster did have an empty quote from Thirsty in there along with the quote of my post.
 
Oh sorry, yes I quoted Leo to say thank you, and noticed immediately after I posted that a quote from Thirsty relating to another thread had also been quoted for some reason, so I went back in and deleted it. Apologies!

When you quote a post, it stays in your "clipboard" until you post it.

So if you don't post it, and then quote another post, it will appear.

If you fear you may have done that, hit the square brackets button to the top right of the text box to toggle BB code, you'll be able to see and delete the empty quote easily there.
