    Need links to the site but yes, it happens fairly often. I fix a couple of them daily for folks. Not real complicated to fix.

    It's most likely because of a plugin he was using or they were not using an up-to-date version of WordPress. The core developers do a pretty good job of staying on top of security related issues. Not saying it doesn't happen because it does, but the most common reasons are listed above.

    Try to deactivate your plugins, or look at your theme's files. Look for any malicious code and remove them.

    The first method some hackers use is to hack the "Admin" user accoun, because by default wordpress use Admin user as a administrator of the blog.
    The 2nd method is by runing different scripts of SQL and XSS, but you can protect your blog from such attacks by using plugins.

    Most people invite malicious code into their website by using warez downloads of themes and plug ins. I see and have people asking for help all of the time and will swear on their kids eyes that they haven't downloaded anything, only to find out that they did it to themselves by downloading an otherwise premium theme from somewhere for free.
