    hello. My email has been compromised. I managed to login yet I can’t change my email address to a clean one.
    Before I even got redirected to a clone of my blog with different username.

    it’s not a popular blog, just a platform for personal thoughts and experiences. I’m not really computer literate, so hard to explain more.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    It’s hard to belief someone took the time but must important had access to your email et all to clone your site? And that different username, it’s probably another account you cretaed on the wordpress.com platform.

    Let’s try to trackback what’s going on: what’s the URL of your site?

    I know it’s hard to believe. Yet this is what I get when I try to login via button sent to my mail. Nothing to do with my blog. It’s not a popular one. Just making remarks for myself. Sharing some conversations with AI while testing them. The entire thing is ongoing since months and there is absolutely no explanation why :) I have my suspicions yet I’m not competent enough to check or verify them. The only thing I remember is what a police inspector told me when I filed a complaint against mobile operator for a double bill. Turned out to be some sim swap. All my pictures were deleted. There was a weird symbol that appeared for a second every time I changed my passwords. I managed to take a picture of it. The inspector said it’s the first time he hears something like that. Have you ever heard anything like that?
