It's not my account, but it is my e-mail address. My gmail address is my name, and every once in a while someone else with a name similar to mine signs up for something and gives them my address with predictably annoying consequences. It is really impressive how persistent some of them are, e.g., a guy in Michigan who insisted for several days that I was his brother. I don't want to close the account, but it sure would be nice if the confirmation messages had a "not me" button. As it is, some of them I can do password recovery and close the account, some of them I argue with people saying no, I'm not the guy they're looking for (for one particularly persistent psychiatrist near Boston who kept signing me up for brokers that arrange hospital shifts, I got to the point that I was telling them he was dead), and a lot just gets reported as spam a few times until I stop seeing it.
