Someone might have logged onto my account?
-
I just got a ‘heads up! Someone logged into your account with your email!’ notification. Should I be concerned?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there, if you believe that somebody has compromised your account, changing your password is the best thing to do. Ensure it’s a secure password: https://en.support.wordpress.com/selecting-a-strong-password/
I’d also suggest highly recommend using 2 Step Verification: https://en.support.wordpress.com/security/two-step-authentication/
I’d also recommend using 2FA on your email, regardless of what services you use. If you inform us of your email provider, we’d be happy to point you in the right direction on how to do that.
This will help keep your account very secure. However, in terms of this incident, I’ve tagged staff as they’ll be able to check if there was any suspicious activity on your account.
Let us know if you have any further questions or issues. :)

@lorikayy95 if that was not you, please do enable 2FA as soon as possible.
I recommend changing your password on your email as well.

I’ve logged you out for good measure; please log back in and enable two-step verification as soon as possible.
Be sure to print or write down your backup codes and keep them somewhere safe.

One more question: can you confirm whether you recently started a new site, https://ourhaitianadventure.home.blog/ ?
