  I was notified this morning that I was following myself. Could my blog have been hacked? I didn’t sign up to follow myself

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

  Hi,

  One possibility, if other people have access to your computer, is they visited your site and clicked “Follow” while you were still logged into your account.

  Another possibility is someone guessed your password. You can change your password by visiting http://wordpress.com/settings/

  Looking at your account, no one has made any “destructive” changes (deleting a post, editing a comment, changing settings, etc) recently, so if someone did access your account, they seemingly haven’t done anything short of following the blog.

  If you have any questions or need anything else, please let me know. Thanks!
