  Hi antoinegermanos476d7e783b,

  The account you are contacting us from doesn’t own any WordPress.com sites. What is the address of the site you are worried has been compromised?

  If it uses WordPress.org software with another host, please contact them or post to the WordPress.org support forums for advice.

  I strongly recommend changing your password on that site — as well as any other places using that email address and password combination.

  You may also want to change the password on your WordPress.com and enable two step authentication (be sure to print the backup codes) to help increase account security.
