Yes. Usually this is how they get into your account: you enable Post By email and./or store your password in your email and they get in that way.

I have some bad news for you: WordPress.com can’t help you because that’s a WordPress.ORG blog. Check over there for assistance.

The link in the foort of your theme on that site is to http://wordpress.org/ and you are posting to the wrong support forum. You need create an account on the top right hand corner of this page and to post to http://wordpress.org

Just to be clear create a username account at WordPress.org on the top right hand corner of this page > http://wordpress.org
