Remove myself as an admin?

    How do I remove myself as an admin?

    I created my WordPress account a long time ago and when I logged in today, I saw that I was an admin to a random blog that I’ve never heard of and am not affiliated with.

    The person who owns the random blog has not been active since 2008. How do I remove myself from this random blog? HELP

    ALSO… it says my blog URL is burley.wordpress.com <—- I don’t know who burley is THIS IS NOT me but my username and PW were correct.

    is someone using my account?!?

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

    Sometimes it happens that someone gets an email address or username wrong when adding someone to their site (even transferring a site to someone else).

    If you are not the owner of the site, even as an Admin you can remove yourself from the site by hovering your mouse over the blog title or address under your Dashboard>My Blogs (not the “My Blogs” on the WordPress.com homepage after you’ve signed in). The words “Leave Blog” should appear there. Click on them.
