I've had 2 brilliant hot-matches today, 1 for my mothers side of the family and 1 for my husbands side, so it is worth checking them even if you do get mis-matches sometimes.
Your match is quite comical tho.

This does happen now and again. One reason is that either you or the other member has just uploaded a new tree. It sorts itself out next time the Hot Match indexes get rebuilt.

They keep sending me hot matches that are already in my contacts. None of them are close members of family, nearly all people doing the widest tree they can manage.
