if anyone is willing to help I will gladly give ftp info

I also have a back up from nov 17th

tried to get my site back to that date but didn't work :(
 
Well, it really could have happened many different ways. Your personal credentials could have been compromised/brute-forced, Your reseller's credentials could have been compromised (e.g. you're using a cPanel server and the server admin didn't disable the ability to login to accounts with the root or reseller password), or even the entire server could be compromised. It could have been caused by a vulnerability in a script or wordpress plugin, the possibilities are literally endless.

Your best course of action would be to make a backup of everything right now, and restore your previous backup (you do have one right? ;) ). Then change all your passwords, and start looking through your logs to see if there is anything suspicious.
 
I don't really know

as I mentioned I don't know the plan am currently on as it was a gift from a friend

I can provide cPanal info if needed too

I tried looking for index.html but couldn't find it

I tried taking my site back to the backup but the index page didn't change yet
