All my posts were changed (name and content) with "watch online movies…"

Hello, everyone!
I need help with a situation.
I’ve just seen that all posts(articles) on my girlfriend’s wordpress site were changed in “Download full movie WOnder Woman (2017)” or “Watch movie online: Anabelle (2017)” and the content is the movie description. Could you tell me what could have caused this strange situation and what should I do to prevent it happening again?
Thank you,
Paul -

Yes, I can, but unfortunately I deleted all the “corrupted” posts :(

It seems your website is self-hosted and pointing to name servers other than WordPress(dot)com. You have posted your query in the WordPress(dot)com forum, which handles queries related to websites hosted by WordPress(dot)com. I suggest you post your query at WordPress(dot)org Support Forum.
Here’s the link: https://wordpress.org/support/
To register with WordPress.org, click this link:

Hi there,
While we can’t help you with this in this forum, it sounds like someone gained unauthorised access to your site, so I recommend immediately changing your password, and removing any users from the site that aren’t supposed to be there.
In the dashboard in Settings ->General, make sure the option for visitors to create their own accounts are disabled.
Make sure your WordPress software, theme and plugins are all updated to the latest version.
And consider installing a security plugin as well.
The folk in the WordPress.org forum will be able to advise you on specifics, as well as anything I perhaps missed.
