Please follow the steps described below to reproduce the bug:

1. Go to forgot password page and enter email amit@linkedin.com and submit.
2. It will show a message "If amit@linkedin.com is in our records, we will send a link to reset your password to that address. If you are having problems receiving this link, please contact Customer Service." though there is no account with this email.
3. Now login with an valid account and add that email (amit@linkedin.com) as your secondary email.
4. Follow step 1.
5. Now it will show a message "The email address you entered is not in our records."

So the behavior is not proper to the user end.
