We have not had that happen. All the "Duplicate Content" items list a number of duplicates that's > 0.
It is possible that Moz is buggy.

RE: Perplexed by last MOZ crawling duplicate content errorsposted in Moz Bar
We had the same concern and asked MOZ support this question: Why are we getting duplicate content warnings for pages that are clearly different?
We received the response below. Our takeaway is that we will continue to take these warning into consideration, but apply our own expertise to determine if action is needed.
Response from support: Thanks for reaching out, and sorry for the confusion! Duplicate content is always kind of a tricky issue. While you or I can qualitatively determine that there are differences between these pages, crawlers are dependent on more quantitative means to determine duplicate content. When they view the pages, one part of the process is to examine the similarity of the pages' code and look for close matches to determine duplicates; this appears to be the issue here. I stuck these URLs into a similar page checker (http://www.webconfs.com/similar-page-checker.php), and it indicated that there was quite a high degree of similarity.
