I don't think that's what caused the problem. As you said, you have different SSN's. If you ever logged into your account using your brother's computer, or if he ever logged into his account using your computer, that's what linked the accounts. Never do that again.
Long ago, when internet phone directories were simpler to use, and free, I looked up my own name. They came up, ten to a page. I looked at four pages, then got tired of it. There was still at least one more page ("next page" link at the bottom), so I know there are more than 40 people with the exact same name as mine.
