Someone hacked my blog?

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi! I just got an email congratulating me for my new blog which I did not make. I logged in to my profile, and I noticed that someone changed my profile picture, and made a new blog. I already deleted that blog but I think they logged off from my old blog: pingvingblog.wordpress.com. My old blog is still up, but it says that it’s not mine now and I noticed that someone put a Ukranian flag banner there. Can somebody help me get my old blog back?
