[atlas] Unknown probe in my account

Hello everyone, I have a probe that works properly but, a few weeks ago, my
account also started to show a probe that doesn't work and that I don't
know. I contacted atlas @ripe.net to ask for clarification but I didn't get
anything (apart from a semi-automated message). So could anyone delete this
unknown probe? https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/63078/ Thank you.

Hi Giuseppe,

it's one of the new v5 probes. The RIPE Atlas team was not able to send out new probes for a while, due to a shortage of new probes.
Did you apply for a new probe some time ago?

New probes are currently being shipped. If you are about to receive a new probe, you can already see it in your userprofile, even before it arrives.

BR,
Simon

My working probe is https://atlas.ripe.net/probes/55083/
So, if I understand correctly, am I receiving a new probe?

Hi Giuseppe,

Did you apply for another probe some time ago?
If so, that's probably why you see a probe in your user profile, that you don't own (yet).

If you did not apply for a new probe, be patient and wait for an answer from atlas _at_ ripe _dot_ net. Maybe it happened by accident.

BR,
Simon

It is possible that I also applied for a probe via the web page; anyway, I
haven't received anything.
