I used to think a strong password was enough until last Tuesday

I got a call from my bank in Phoenix about a suspicious login from a device I didn't own, even though my password was a 12-character mix of letters and numbers. Turns out, the site had a breach months ago and my reused password was floating around. Anyone else get caught by password reuse even when the original one was strong?

Strong passwords ARE enough, just don't reuse them.

Until a site gets breached and yours gets leaked anyway.
