My account may have been hacked
-
My password is no longer working and none of the emails that should be associated with the account are working to reset the password.

I had a similar experience. On the app yesterday. I could not access the live version of my blog. I was stuck in editor mode. Mind you, I believe somebody has been tampering with my blogs ever since I started it up.
Hackers and those who commit computer criminality should have their fingers chopped off.

@amplifytheecho: the same question as for the TS: what is the URL of your site on the wordpress.com platform?
-
https://amplifytheecho.wordpress.com/
Can you tell me who is hacking.?I have an idea. Although, that wouldn’t be an issue for you to resolve. I just need to complain to their Ombudsman.

Hi @amplifytheecho,
I don’t see any suspicious activity on your WordPress.com account. If you believe that someone gained access to your account I suggest changing your password (https://en.support.wordpress.com/passwords/) and enabling the Two Step Authentication (http://en.support.wordpress.com/security/two-step-authentication/).

I didn’t say somebody has accessed it. I said the strange restrictions and stats don’t make sense. Can you tell me how 1 visitor can register 2 views on an article.?

If people are making money from site views and there is fraud going on…….I would hate to be the CEO of WordPress.
I am off, to get somebody to investigate.

Hey there @amplifytheecho,
I responded to your thread you created about this issue.
Please respond to that thread if you have any other questions.
Thanks!

The hacker has installed a new version of wp

Hi @ismatj,
Your site is using the self-hosted version of WordPress, and you need to seek help at the WordPress.org forums:
https://wordpress.org/support/forums/
These forums are for WordPress.com hosted sites only :)
btw I’m afraid to tell you that your site is under attack, cuz I was able to login in your website dashboard using /wp-admin and it took me to fresh install page :D
Thanks !!! -

@ismatj, honestly I’d recommend contacting your host and asking for a backup to be restored. Good luck!
And @amplifytheecho, please be sure to post in your own thread (certainly with more than a dot if you need more help, too.) Your issue is unrelated to this one as their site is not hosted here.
I’ll go ahead and close this thread.
