Before reporting an issue make sure you are running the latest build of the plugin and checked for duplicate issues!
What behaviour is observed:
What happened?
It shows that I own 2 accounts,
Account 1 (me), Account 2 (some other player which isn't my account)
What behaviour is expected:
What did you expect?
Just Account 1 was supposed to be there.
And we are not in the same IP so AuthMe was supposed to consider us as seperated.

I have the exact same problem, and I'm using it in a spigot-based server (without bungeecord)
@CroaBeast are you using services like TcpShield or another ddos protection layer?
Hi, can you provide more context on how you ensure that you are not on the same IP?
The way AuthMe works is that it marks down the IP address from which an account was first registered. Since that moment, it will always report that specific username for other players joining from that IP.
As IPv4 is a scarce commodity these days, it is very probable that you share yours with someone else. Your Internet Service Provider probably uses the same "public" IPv4 for multiple clients, or even for the subnet of clients (to use their assigned public IPs efficiently). In practice, this means that the whole building or even a small street can share the same IP address - the one that AuthMe sees, and that may be why you see that Account 2.
