Received DMCA notice

Got this email from google today. I'm not actually infringing on anything am I? I see they listed a bunch of sites that had the pdf of the book, all I'm doing is using iframely to frame the amazon page (which I guess has a sample of the book). Is that violating DMCA?
In fact that specific book is not even iframing due to the 10 link limit.

@dangeruss you're not. Bad DMCA notices are a very common thing.

OK, thanks. I already filed a counter notice. Nice of them to help me advertise my site though.

Wait, the "copyright infringement" is a link to the page that it's infringing upon along with the title of the page?
I'm 99% sure that the copyright notice was submitted by the same sort of bot that did this thing:
If you file a counter-notice explaining basically what either of our posts just said, they'll be forced to either manually reply (in which case they'll find the same thing as us) or just ignore it and drop the takedown notice.

When he files counter-notice, they'll have to go to court, AFAIK.

Yeah, but my point is that that's not something a rational human being would do, because they're 100% guaranteed to lose the case. So the only reason they would actually go to court is if they let the same broken robot decide.
