  Hi there,
  
  If this is a potential security issue with your account, I would first reset your password:

  http://support.wordpress.com/passwords/
  
  Then, to add an extra layer of security, I would enable two-step authentication:
  
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/security/two-step-authentication/
  
  This should kick anyone who has access to your account out and prevent them from regaining access to the account since the new requirement for access requires a second step.
  
  Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
  
  Thanks!
