are you familiar with MAC PORTS? What is its purpose?
MacPorts is a package manager used to install software on the unix level of the system.
You would have installed it. It doesn't get there by itself.
Did someone else have control of your Mac?
No,one had access. I do rember doing it however I didn’t know it would set up a login on the login screen

It does create a user account, but I don't remember if it is supposed to be hidden or not.
