    My domain (www.benhewitt.net) redirects to a strange website (http://vustrum.com/). Have I been hacked? What can I do? What’s the best way to get help quickly with this? Please?

    Sorry you’re having trouble with this.

    The first thing you’ll want to do is check the nameservers for your domain at your registrar and make sure they are pointing to:

    NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
    NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
    NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

    If you think the website is strange you might also want to check with Godaddy and let them know.

    Additionally, you can log in to your blog’s dashboard and go to Store => Domains to change your primary domain so that you can visit your blog in the meantime.

    Let us know how it goes.
