It looks like you are running wordpress did you keep it upto date ? Have you tried to run tools like wp-scan to identify any issue on your site before it got hacked? Do you even have access to the site any more ? Title: Re: blog hacked. so , what to do? Post by: shadowzero on August 09, 2012, 08:03:01 AM Pretty sure you posted a the same question here before.
