  My blog has been hacked. The blogs I follow are not the blogs I follow. I have no idea what has happened to the actual blogs I follow. The blog I need help with is [link to mature site redacted by mod-Staff can see the site involved.]

  Hi there,

  Where are you seeing the wrong blogs? In the Blogs I follow widget, or in your Reader list, here:

  https://wordpress.com/following/edit/

  I don’t see any evidence in your account logs that someone other than you accessed your account. There are a lot of entries for following and unfollowing sites, but those are spread out over the past year. In the past weeks there has only been 3 unfollows.

  If you are speaking of the widget showing the wrong sites, that is a bug with the widget that has nothing to do with your site or account. That bug has already been reported and our developers are working on it.

  If you suspect your account has been hacked, update your WordPress.com and email passwords immediately, and consider activating two-factor authentication on both.
