  I tagged this thread with modlook to get attention from Staff. They have access to the logfiles and can see what happened.

  Hi there,

  When exactly did this happen, and how do you know someone actually logged it? The only way someone can log into your account with an email login link is if they also have access to your email account, and the last email login I can see on your account was four days ago.

  If you suspect someone has been able to log into your account via an email link, please make sure you immediately change the password on your email account, and also enable two-step authentication on your email. Also consider enabling two-step authentication on your WordPress.com account to add an extra layer of security on top of the email login.
