  I saw: Spam posts on my blog… today and yesterday… I have never shared my password with anyone still Spam Posts have been put up. Till date only spam comments used to come to my blog which I used to delete and now these are appearing as Posts!!! And in all possibilities other people might also be facing the same problem. I made my blog ‘private’ yesterday for fear of it happening again but alas! another spam post appeared again on its own!

  Please save my blog from these spam messages that are getting auto-posted!!!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  pritiahuja,

  In the mean time, change your password and please run a malware/spyware/virus scan on your computer to make sure it is not infected. WP.com is pretty much unhackable, and if you haven’t actively shared your password with anyone, it’s likely that your computer is hacked. If you have used a public computer, e.g. Internet cafe to log in to your blog, that PC could have been infected.
