Hacked Account!
-
I had a new follower calling himself jllopartfolch whose link to his site is to my own wordpress me/my account… Could you please look into this… I have changed my password just this minute to try and prevent him accessing further into my account..
my blog is suedreamwalker.wordpress,com. Thank you I hope you can help… Do I block him or will that end up blocking me? -
I don’t see any suspicious activity anywhere, and that particular account doesn’t have any link to your site.
Would you please let me know exactly where you see this so we can further track down what’s going on?

Thank you yes, the account I see is in my Bell notification column, at the moment 5th down… under the name I mentioned… ‘jllopartfolch ‘ When I clicked on his logo to see his site… It lead to my own account personal page his web address says WordPress.com/me/account could you look into it for me please… It leads straight to my account settings page…
I am worried they could alter anything on there. Thank you for your attention to this matter.. -
To be clear, https://wordpress.com/me/account is everyone’s account page. It leads to yours because you’re logged in when you clicked that link.
Which brings me to what’s happening.
Do you see that “Web Address” field at https://wordpress.com/me/account ?
In this case, for some reason, jllopartfolch has entered https://wordpress.com/me/account
So, this definitely isn’t a hack or anything malicious. Just someone doing something a bit odd. :)
-
Yes I see that as his link https://wordpress.com/me/account in his follow link and in his like…
Thank you very much for your reassurances Yes very odd… But I am pleased it’s nothing Malicious.
Thank you again for taking time to investigate and reassure me my site is fine..
You can now consider this matter closed and Have a wonderful festive Holiday season where you are ..
