  Someone with the username ‘badmin’ got into my website, deleted all my work. How can I restore my website?

  Hi arimedwebsite,

  I’ve checked the account you are contacting us from and it doesn’t own any WordPress.com sites. Can you do as @timethief suggested and send a link to your site?

  @arimedwebsite, these forums are actually for the sites here at WordPress.com, which is different than what you have as your own WordPress installed at iPage.

  I’d recommend getting in touch with them and asking them to restore a backup, then using the resources at WordPress.org to update and protect your installation.

  If you need more help, the correct support forum for your site is here:
  https://wordpress.org/support

  Or, once you’ve resolved the issue, if you’d like to move your site to our servers, you’d be welcome:
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/coming-from-self-hosted/

  Just let us know if you need help with that.

  Good luck!
