A person I know who manages a blog (agrotecrevista.wordpress.com) found this blog deleted. Someone unauthorized did this. Even the login has been lost (that's why I'm sending from mine). Is there a way to restore it?
Thank you so much
WordPress.com is an easy way to start blogging. Get a blog, check out our features, read the latest announcements, choose from great themes, or learn about the team behind it.

Your friend needs to change passwords to a very difficult one immeditaely. It's also possible your friend's emal account has been hacked. They need to change the password immeditely there too.

The recommendation is only 1 Admin per blog.

Blogs aren't easily deleted. Firstly, one has to have access to the log-in information. Secondly, there are 3 warnings given. Thirdly, there is an email with a verficiation link inti it that must be clicked to delete a blog.
The answer to your question is "no". Once a blog has been deleted it's gone forever. http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/delete-blog/ There is no recycling of blog addresses ie. URLs and once deleted they cannot be used by anyone. http://en.support.wordpress.com/recycling-blog-names/
If your friend subscribed to their own RSS Feed on the now deleted blog, and/or if the indexed blog content appears in Google's cache it may be possible to copy and paste to reconstruct a new blog.
