Why would an account (not mine) show up by itself on my Firefox browser when using Google maps?

I always use Firefox - last week opened Google Maps in Firefox- no problem - it worked fine - was in English - all good! This week - opened Google Maps - and all by itself there is an account of a person (not me) in Thai. I don't speak or understand Thai so I can't even try to get out of this persons account or eliminate it (not to mention - why is it there in the first place??? It just magically appeared???) By chance - I tried Google Maps in Safari (which I never use) - the account came up - NOT under this alien persons name - just regular Google Maps in English. I was able to utilize it - no problem.
This is extremely bizarre - I don't want to use Safari - but apparently Firefox has screwed up here (on it's own it has put this account into my machine - why?) - or possibly it's Google who screwed up which wouldn't be surprising. A person cannot contact Google - they are so arrogant they just have the attitude - we are Google - use our stuff - and the hell with you - nice!!! However - if Safari is just getting the regular Google Maps site - why is Firefox opening Google Maps in an alien account - like mentioned - I just went in like regularly and this alien account appeared.
I never use any of Googles services - I do have an OLD account there - but don’t even remember the user name or log-in. I don’t like their company - they are overbearing - dictatorial - and intrusive - so why bother with them. But no clue why this alien account would have been attached to my computer - not there one week - and then there the next out of the blue???
At any rate - is there any way to get rid of this alien account in my Firefox browser - I am not a computer wiz - but can follow instructions on how to do things easily. Maybe the Firefox cache needs to be cleared - I don’t know (?) - nor do I really know how to do that. Or why the cache would be storing information that shouldn’t be on my machine in the first place??? Thanks!
