Subject: Blog URL Stolen and my admin privileges removed
My brother and I are both administrators on his sports blog with the
url http://mlb-rumors.blogspot.com. This blog was voted most popular
sports blog of 2007 and has the #3 page rank on Google for "MLB
Rumors."

On Sunday evening, someone apparently hacked one of the admin accounts
and removed both my and my brothers' administrator privileges. We are
unable to access the blog and the template has been changed.

Is Google able to recover the blog URL, which is very valuable because
of the reputation my brother has built for himself over the past 18
months?

Any suggestions from the community on how to address this issue is
very much appreciated. I have already filed a Blogger Support Contact
form.

Thanks!

The offender is now copying and pasting content from the new URL. Can
someone please advise me on steps I can take to get some assistance
from Google? I am filing a DMCA claim.

bumping this to the top for you because I too have been removed as
admin on my account and blogger has done nothing about the problem
