Ah, you should have mentioned that earlier. :)

I see an account name carl.george. It now has a bogus email and the
account is permanently disabled. Please confirm you have no issue with
the "CarlGeorge" account.

Deleting an account can only be done by administrators of the machine.
But it's probably not necessary.
