Security hacker problem?
-
You guys notified me that someone named truddles13 reblogged my widows like me blog. when I got to the site is is not really a blog site is is just a big picture of my widows like me book with parts of the blog but truddles13 doesn’t seem to have a wordpress blog at all. It is very weird. when I click on truddles13 it just goes to a picture page they have set up with my blog on it but everything else around it is blank.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Not a security risk at all
Reblog means that someone used that feature to put a 55 word excerpt of your Post on their blog. Means one of several things, 1) they really liked what you wrote or 2) they were too lazy to write something of their own 3) Some people use reblog to keep links to things they like and want to share with friends

“is just a big picture of my widows like me book with parts of the blog”
That’s what a reblog is: a post that consists of an image from the original post, the beginning of the text of that post, and a link to that post.“is not really a blog site”
Well, it is a blog: it’s just very new – a blog that has only one post, and a blog that started in the worst possible way (with a reblog instead of an original post). Maybe they did it to experiment with WP. None of your concern. -
Thank you auxclass and justpi for the responses. I’m probably paranoid because my twitter and facebooks accounts were both hacked this week.

You’re welcome.
Reblogging isn’t hacking: it’s just a cheap WP invention designed to increase the number of blogs and posts by catering to the habits of the Facebook generation, i.e. by allowing lazy idiots to create “content” with the click of a button rather than their own thoughts and words. -
