I have been hacked
-
I tried to delete my site, but didn’t get the email to delete. I have been hacked and want the site completely deleted.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

in the meantime, you could mark the blog as private, if you don’t want all that nonsense displayed to the world!

landscapelover good thinking!
To change blog visibility to Private go to Dashboard > Settings > Reading scroll to Blog Visibility and choose option 3 .

Go to your email program and change the password to a very difficult one because that’s how many hackers gain access to blogs.
Then read this please and act on what you find there > http://en.support.wordpress.com/security/1. If you can log-in go here > Users > All Users and delete any user that does not belong there.
2. Disable post by email > http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-by-email/
3. Disable post by voice > http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-by-voice/
4. Change your blog password to a very difficult one > http://en.support.wordpress.com/passwords/#change-your-password
5. Use a secure, encrypted connection to connect to your Dashboard. Under Users → Personal Settings, check the box that says “Always use HTTPS when visiting administration pages, and click Save Changes.

Well that’s always frustrating to deal with (both the hacking and the deletion email not showing up).
In any case, I can help with the deletion. Because you have multiple WordPress.com sites, please pardon the double checking:
Please confirm that you would like to delete the site http://theskinnyongettinghealthy.wordpress.com/ and also confirm that you understand that this cannot be undone and that you will not be able to use the URL http://theskinnyongettinghealthy.wordpress.com/ in the future.
