  I don’t know how this was possible. I’m not open for business and didn’t send anyone a message with a business related/ WordPress email. I’ve deleted their User account. This was at 533 am this morning.

  Hi there!

  For someone to be able to access your site with an email link, they would need to have access to your email.
  So I’d suggest that you immediately change your passwords for both WordPress.com and your email (and any other place where you used the same password).
  Also, you should consider enabling the two-factor authentication, to increase the security of your account:
