Tips for Creating Secure Passwords
As you reset your AOL Mail password, keep in mind these tips:
- Don't use anything obvious, like "123456" or "mypassword."
- The longer your password, the more secure it is
- Don't use letters that are next to each other on your keyboard or that follow some obvious pattern, such as the four corners of your phone's keypad.
- Don't use the same password that you use on another site. Make each password for each site unique.
- Don't build a password on personal details such as birthdates, addresses, phone numbers, etc.
- Change your password from time to time.
- If you get an email requesting that you change your password, don't click on any link in the email; the email could have come from a hacker. Instead, type the website address into your browser and go to your account. If it's a legitimate request, it will show up there.
