Cyber-Bob’s Daily Cyber Safety Tip — #107

“Passwords Shouldn’t Be Reused… Even If You Really Like Them.”

Cyber-Bob knows the struggle:
Remembering passwords sometimes feels like juggling bowling balls while riding a unicycle — doable, but not recommended for seniors or anyone with a good sense of self-preservation. 😄

But here’s the truth:

Reusing the same password everywhere is like using one key for:
🔑 your house
🔑 your car
🔑 your shed
🔑 your bank
🔑 your email
🔑 and your secret stash of chocolate

If a scammer copies that one key…
they now own everything.

If it makes you smile, you’ll remember it.
