  I think my blog was hacked. I was trying to delete all the posts yesterday. The page was taking a very long time to delete and the screen went to a white page with black text saying a sort of fake error message. It read something to the effect of “Oops! Something seems to have gone wrong. We’re sure whatever it is is Matt’s fault.” I need to know if someone has downloaded my posts or hacked my account.

  That error message is a legitimate WordPress.com error message.
