  Hi blueblogwriter.

  When someone signs up for a new WordPress account they are sent an activation link to the email address that they sign up with. If someone else is using your email address, it means that they have access to your email account to be able to click on that activation link.

  I’d recommend changing your email password.

  Will you please let us know your preferred email address? If you format the email address properly our forum will automatically redact the email address so that no one else can see it.
