Hi, ya’ll!
I’m sorry to hear of the issues reported here and the impact this has had.
As for the reported removals, please update to the latest version of ACF Pro to prevent this. WordPress.com has built-in security scanning which alerts our team for installations of ACF Pro below 5.9.1.
This is due to the vulnerability that was reported: https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/d1e9c995-37bd-4952-b88e-945e02e3c83f
Also, please feel free to contact WordPress.com support for more on this.
Best,
Joshua
