Account compromised
-
Overnight I received messages about a new site at 5f9r2pztcybqxdvl.wordpress.com being created.
I’ve:
1. Reset my password
2. Enabled 2FA
3. Deleted the siteIf I could do it without affecting anything I actually use like Gravatar I’d prefer to delete the account entirely, but I gather that’s not possible.

Hi there!
You did the right thing, @woe2you.
If you used the same password here on WordPress.com/Gravatar as on any other website – I’d suggest you update it there as well. It sounds like your password (not your WordPress.com account) might have been part of a security breach on some other service; you can check it at https://haveibeenpwned.com/.
