Hacked and spammed
-
I had my email and Twitter accounts hacked yesterday which resulted in those accounts sending out spam links to what felt like the entire world. It also resulted in a post being auto-posted to my blog that contained the same spam link.
I’ve now turned off the post via email option, changed all my passwords, made sure I’m using https for all my admin pages….
Is there anything else I need to do to protect my blog and my readers from anything like this happening again?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
