We know an issue occurred on the site over an hour ago with someone using my account to redirect the site, make fake posts, and change other settings. The problem has been corrected.

We will continue to monitor the situation and keep you informed.

Opened via incognito as I said. No cache stored. It appears the title of the site change back again. Are you sure you have full access of your account and no one else is on it?

It was fixed for me but it's just started again.
