Can someone explain to me how to remove an internet account?

I go to System Preferences > Internet Accounts and highlight the account to be deleted and click the minus ("-") key. I click the REMOVE FROM ALL button in the confirmation dialog box... And almost immediately, I get a system notification that the account was (re)added...

I have about 4 computers with these accounts installed, but they just keep coming back... is there a secret handshake or something that I am missing? I have about 5 accounts that I need to remove, but the same situation keeps repeating itself.

I'm having the same issue - did you ever find a solution?

Safe mode removal did not help, it just added them back in safe mode as well.
