NOT MY EMAIL!

WTH? Has anyone else had this problem? It's not my email that's logged in. I've checked every conceivable section of my Google profile. Don't know this email address. Not on my phone, my laptop, tablets or anything else that I have ever logged on with.
 
Did you lend your phone to someone to check his email? Maybe it's still logged in.
Go to Gmail.com from the same browser and see who's email opens up
 
Strange. Not sure how it got there, but it's something that you want to get rid of cuz whoever that email belongs to, is probably able to access your history and... Saved password!
First delete your saved password and history in your browser. Go to history> clear browsing data> advanced. and select all and delete
Then check your accounts in phone, maybe this email was somehow added to your phone.
Settings>accounts>Google. Make sure it's not there, if it is remove ASAP.
Only after that, go back to where you find that email in the first place (in Google search results page) and next to it there should be 'switch accounts' press on that and select your account. Or delete all data of your browser by going in phone settings>application manager>., find the browser app (chrome?) Press on it go into storage and clear data.
Does that help?
 
I found the answer. My wife had used my phone to log into a joint email account that was created way back before we got married. It was supposed to be a throw away account for gift registry, ect., that was supposed to be closed. Problem corrected. Thanks guys.
