Today is the 15 of September 2019. I'm currently installing OS X El Capitan on an older MacBook Pro 2012 Model 9,2 as part of a testing phase for my client's computer. I was literally stuck and stumped about why this was happening in the first place. Found this video via Google after typing in the error message and followed the information on the video and BAM! Like clockwork it worked perfectly. Open up Terminal and type the following, "date 0202020216" without the quotation marks. Nice.

I just thought this thing happen due to the mac os security starting from 10.9 Mavericks: The date verified is from the release date of the current version to the release date of the next version. So I just keep the solution of this thing simple every time I install mac os: I search for the release date of mac os version I'm willing to install, then set the system date of macbook/imac/mac pro to the 1st January of the next year, i.e. when I'm willing to install Mac OS High Sierra, I use this command in recovery mode Terminal: date 0101010118 = 1st of January 2018 at 01:01. High Sierra was released on late 2017, so I use date of early 2018 Thanks for uploading this video, perhaps more and more people out there know about this thing after watching this video
