  @olive081459,

  This seems like someone has gotten into your account with an email link, and that person has access to yout email, which means they now have access to your account. Did you authorize this login?

  I’ve gone ahead and tagged this for Staff assistance as well as they can see any log-in attempts for your account.

  If you believe that someone has access to your WordPressdotcom and/or email account, you should immediately change your passwords. Here’s how you can change your WordPressdotcom account password: https://en.support.wordpress.com/passwords/

  In general, here’s more information on keeping your site secure. https://en.support.wordpress.com/security/

  Please reset all of your online passwords using secure measures:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/selecting-a-strong-password/

  Enable 2 factor authentication on all accounts with that feature (both your WordPress.com and email accounts especially important):
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/security/two-step-authentication/

  These measures will increase your online security significantly. Do not share passwords. If using public computers be certain you’ve logged out of all of your accounts. No two accounts should ever share a password either.
