What is happening? Google My Business users will receive an email advising the profile is visible to the public, but when you sign in to your Google My Business Account, it asks to enter verification code.
If you press on “Claim this business” on the live listing, it will advise the listing has been already claimed/verified:
Google recommends all users affected by this issue to contact Google My Business Support as the next step.
