Why do I have to reset my password on yahoo every couple of days lately?

Question

I will reset my password and one or two days later it will tell me my new password is invalid and make me reset it again.

Answer 1

Essentially they are trying to make sure that you are you.

This happens if you log into yahoo mail from different sources, like lets say from work, then from home.

Yahoo thinks that you might be another person trying to hack the account.

Internet security is increasing, so these kinds of things will become more and more common as time passes.

It seems like I have to enter my password every other time, but that's probably just a matter of perception
