Multiple New User Registrations – seems like spam
-
Over the past couple of weeks, my site has gotten 1 or 2 new user registrations per day…this is very abnormal because for 2 years previous, my site has only gotten about 4 registrations in total. It seems like these are spam registrations…why are they happening all of a sudden? How do I stop it?
Thanks,
PhilThe blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Sounds like you actually need help for a WordPress powered site, not a site hosted at WordPress.com. WordPress.com and WordPress.org are a little separate, and that can be confusing.
You’ll want to use the forums at https://wordpress.org/support/ for any support on managing your site.
WordPress.com hosted sites don’t get new user registration emails, because users cannot register for specific sites. They can only register at WordPress.com and follow sites hosted here.
Hope that helps to point you in the right direction!

Darciemg – thank you for the reply. However, I can’t even log into the wordpress.org forums…I don’t have an account. The account associated with my site is wordpress.com so I am a little confused.

This forum and the WordPress.org forum are two different places and unconnected. Your WordPress.com login details won’t work there. You just create a new account at https://login.wordpress.org/register?locale=en_US
