 * Good morning, how did a user manage to register as an admin in my WordPress site
   without having the necessary credentials? I don’t want it to happen anymore, 
   what should I do?
    Thank you

 * If admin level users are being added to your WordPress installation then you’ve
   been hacked.
 * Please remain calm and give this a good read.
