Hacking a passwords is done in many ways but the simplest one is to guess and no wonder we see so many people having intruders in their email accounts or even Facebook account. Below are the 20 most popular and hacked passwords that hacker tries (and successfully hack in). Sadly there are a majority of people who use these.

Here we go with the list:

• 123456
• 12345
• 123456789
• abc123
• password
• iloveyou
• princess
• rockyou
• 1234567
• 12345678
• Nicole
• Daniel
• babygirl
• lovely
• 654321
• 111111
• qwerty
• soccer
• monkey
• password1

Better not try the above passwords and think that hackers are not going to try stupid passwords. In fact many people think that hackers (well I am offending hackers, so we’ll call them kiddies onward), I mean kiddies, will not try these simple passwords and only try to find complicated ones.

Sadly not. These are the first thing they try and will only move to other steps such as Brute Force Attack or Social Engineering after the first step has failed. Don’t tell me you use these now!
