How do i remove previous owners Samsung account and Cloud

[Android Central Question]

I had an update last night and woke to find the previous owners face next to my text messages. Went to my pictures and his pictures were in there too. I've had the phone around 2 months. How did this happen and how can i remove account?

It seems the seller is logged in to the Samsung account he set up on the phone. I wonder if he can access any of your data?

I don't think you can delete the account without the password but you can deny the Samsung account access to the phone in Settings.

If you are able to access his pics, I'm thinking he'll be helpful to get you logged out of his account.
