“Your account has been blocked as a security precaution.”

    I can log in with my username and password, but it says, “Your account has been blocked as a security precaution. To continue, you must reset your password.”

    I tried to reset my password and send a login link to my registered email, but I did not get an email. I know I am posting under my Wittem account and a different account than the one the site is registered to, but I can’t post with that username since I can’t log on or change my password. I’m in a loop here.

    I saw this “No two WordPress.com accounts can use the same email address. If the email address associated with your unwanted account is the email you actually wish to use for your main account, you can free up the email address to use with whichever account you need.”

    Is this for a WordPress email account or an email? Can I have three WordPress accounts using the same email? could this be my issue?

    The email address is the unique identifier on the wordpress.com platform. Each wordpress.com uses a unique email address. If you have 3 wordpress.com accounts, you must have 3 different email addresses.

    Ive changed the emails so now only the miwitte account associated to https://packetized.wordpress.com/ is using it.

    Can you tell me if the Miwitte account is still using the @carolina.rr.com domain? I am still not getting reset emails, so I cannot log into the Miwitte account and blog to my site.

    Can you tell me if the Miwitte account is still using the  @carolina.rr.com domain? I am still not getting reset emails and the email address shouldn’t have changed. I hope no one got in and changed the email, I doubt it because the username and password still work if someone hacked it they would have changed it.
