I applaud the sentiment, but with my fresh pair of eyes I don't see this resolving the confusion. Yes, you tell the user to try a different login, which may help, but you also just flatly denied that the object they're looking for exists. How is logging in differently going to fix that? Seeing that message instead of the page I expected, I might wonder if it were meant for some other scenario.
To put the "try a different login" advice into context, you'll need to water down the "this object does not exist" message. It will have to say that the object does not exist _or the user's account may not be privileged to view it_.
