So i hired a cheap guy to do some small project for me. He now keeps trying to scam me and tell me i owe him money, i guess this is a new trick theyre doing. This morning the site was all messed up. He does not have access to the server but to the admin section which he developed. I changed the admin section password but he somehow got into it.
I told him put things back and i will pay tomorrow, which i obviously will not. In the meantime everything is on the server operating correctly.
What should i do? Is there a way to copy everything in working order? How can i block him out of the admin section that he developed?
I never dealt with this before but i should have known better when outsourcing it seemed to cheap to be true. I would really appreciate help i know little of security.
