Passwords like 12345, 09876  are considered as risky,  So don t use consecutive and sequential combination of letters. always use these with alpha bates Like G3H9F4PM77.

Password 

Another bad choice is to use password keys  as P@sswords, Pa$$word. This might be easy to remember  but   is  a soft target for  hackers.
