  Hi There,

  Keegan here, WordPress.com expert community member, I would be happy to help.

  Could you please provide some more information about the email you received? Was this email from WordPress.com or Automattic?

  I am receiving literally thousands of email from wordpress.com sites from all over the world thanking me for my registration and trying to get me to confirm a password and user ID. This started happening around 1:00 this morning Pacific Time. I have never registered for a wordpress site and want to get this to stop. Obviously some kind of spam or hack…. can you help me out here?

  Hi –

  cleomacy, please share more information about the email. Is it a notification email for a blog you are following? What is the sender address?

  Hi rvstripes –

  It sounds like someone is using your email address to follow sites and blogs. You can ignore the emails if you are not trying to follow them.

  Additionally, you should update your password for your email account and your WordPress.com account and enable 2 factor authorization on both of those.

  Keep Your Site Safe and Secure

  I’ve had a look at our email logs and there’s no record for any WordPress.com pending subscriptions. There have been 4 emails delivered to you, from us directly, at the address listed on your account at wordpress.com/me/account/

  These are not WordPress.com hosted sites.

  Good morning –

  My best advice is to contact your domain registrar, http://www.gandi.net, and ask them to assist you with the domain.
