Imagine your password is like a secret code to open a treasure box. Hackers can guess the code, copy it from someone else, or even trick you into giving it away, and once they have it, they're in! It’s easy because people often use simple codes that are hard to keep safe.
Examples
- You tell your friend your password by accident, and now they can log into your account too.
- A hacker uses a computer that tries every password from '1234' up to 'abcdefg' until it finds the right one.
- You click on a link that looks like it's from your bank, but it’s actually a hacker trying to steal your password.
