It's based on the email address in your account, not your username.

Furthermore, if you really want to screw with someone and you changed your account email to theirs just to get their avatar, well... good for you. You can use any avatar you want anyway. Seems like a lot of work for something that could be done pretty easily by just using the same avatar.
