    Well, make sure your website has strong passwords and think about adding extra security with two-step verification. Also, check your website for any bad stuff like viruses or harmful code. Take a look at all the users on your website and get rid of any that seem strange or you don’t recognize.

    Hi there, @mobashshirnaiyer the best place to get assistance with your WordPress website is the support forums at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/ You’ve posted to the forums for sites hosted by WordPress.com, the hosting provider. You can learn more about the differences in this guide.

    Regardless, you should be able to turn off “Allow Anyone to Register” in your site settings under Settings >General in the dashboard, and you can remove any users who shouldn’t be there under Users >All Users.

    If that didn’t solve it for you or you’ve encountered a different issue, you’ll want to check in with the fine folks in the WordPress.org forums.
