Help all WordPress users and me! Hackers made plugins to WordPress, when redirects pages of users sites to bad and ugly pages. It’s bad! You must to solve the problem of hackers attacks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Which site URL are you referring to?
Which username account registered it?re: hacked accounts and blogs
If anyone is posting anything to your blog or removing anything from it, or changing anything in it, or if your blog has been deleted and you did not delete it, then it’s most likely that you have provided them with the ability to do so, either deliberately by adding them as official users, or by allowing them access to your login information, or by posting content that makes it easy for them to guess what your log-in information is.
For you the question that needs to be answered is: Who, aside from me, has access to my login information?
Go to your email program immediately and change the password to a very difficult one because that’s how many hackers gain access to blogs.

You can also reset your password via your Settings tab on the WordPress.com home page:
http://wordpress.com/#!/settings/Use a secure, encrypted connection to connect to your Dashboard. Under Users → Personal Settings, check the box that says “Always use HTTPS when visiting administration pages, and click Save Changes.
Use two step authentication http://en.support.wordpress.com/security/two-step-authentication/
Run a security scan on your computer. See here to run a security scan http://geekflare.com/online-scan-website-security-vulnerabilities/
Never leave your computer logged into your blog and walk away from it. Always log out properly.

Hi there,
There hasn’t been any security breach for sites hosted on WordPress.com. Can you please let me know your site’s address so that I can have a closer look? Thanks!
