Delete account or site
-
Hi, a year ago edthena.wordpress.com site owner added me to his website on WordPress.com. How can I remove his website from my lists of site or maybe the only way is to delete this account?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Howdy –
I can remove you from the site. Please confirm that you’d like me to remove your Admin role from edthena.wordpress.com?

To whom it may concern,
Recently I deleted my site from wordpress. Please delete me from this account. I am currently not interested in having a site or an account from wordpress. I tried to delete it myself and I could not do it.
Sincerely,
Candace Azarbal -
My email is cazarbal100.wordpress.com.
I tried to change it by getting another site which was cazarbal200gmail.wordpress.com. When I deleted the site, it did not work to delete the account. Can you delete the account for me? -

I am the site owner. I have removed him. I became aware of this request via my own social media monitoring. Not via any direct contact from WP.
How do I escalate this support issue to a support manager and security team member?
I have serious concerns that the protocol is structured such that a WP.com employee would consider modifying anything about a site without contacting the site owner of record outside the forum environment. Yes, the user in question was, at the time of writing, listed as an admin on the site. And his request, in this instance, was non malicious.
But what if someone writes in requesting that a site be deleted (per the category header)? Would the request be fulfilled? This type of proposed action without definitive and secondary verification outside the forum environment reveals what appears to be a real and serious threat vector for socially engineering an attack on WP.com hosted sites.

Users have the right to request removal from a site, and in fact have the ability to remove themselves via the My Blogs page in WP-Admin. You as site owner need to give permission for them to be added to a site, but we don’t require your permission to remove them from the site at their own request.

But what if someone writes in requesting that a site be deleted
To delete a site you need to be logged in as a user that has admin privileges on the site. You cannot request that support delete a site for you – if you took some time searching this forum you’ll see repeated examples where I, other staff members, and volunteers state this.
You’re conflating two situations here that have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

Hi everyone. Thanks for all the answers.
