I’ve shared link to this project with a few people just to show my skills

 

like the project does not have onwer or admins. I can't change that. And I am not able to delete the project, but the link to it still works

 

have I been hacked?

what do I do?

Hi ​@Rusu Daniela, Celyn from Figma Community Support here.

Thanks for reaching out here. I understand that you're concerned because your project appears to have no owner, you're unable to delete it, and you're not sure why it's still accessible through the link.

Just so I can make sure we're investigating this correctly, could you let me know if this is related to the issue you reported here?

If it's related to the same file or project, it may be helpful to continue the conversation on ticket #1942581, which I've created for you. This will help the team keep all the relevant context and updates together while they investigate.

If this is a separate issue affecting a different file or project, I can help to create another ticket for you so the team can take a closer look.

Happy to help either way, let me know!

Yes, it is. I didn’t know how to delete this post :’)

Also, it might not be as much reletated as it could be but: 

When I was still listed as the creator of the project and could edit it — I made a copy just in case. Until today I had no problems with the file's copy. Today I wanted to access the edit history in the file's copy, and that's when I lost the creator status on that file too. Now both files behave exactly the same way and have the same properties.
