I've recently noticed that my passwords seem to have been changed across multiple accounts—Gmail, Reddit, Epic, Ubisoft, and some social media sites—but I didn't get any notifications about it. Now, when I try to log in, I keep getting invalid password messages. I've run a Malwarebytes scan on my computer, and it found nothing. Is it possible that a virus could be hiding in an mp4 file? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

Just a thought, but is your keyboard working properly? Sometimes, keys can malfunction, and it might be causing issues with typing your password correctly.
It sounds less like a computer issue and more like a password breach. Try checking your email on sites like 'Have I Been Pwned' to see if your email has been part of any major data breaches where your credentials might have been exposed.
Are you using the same password for all those accounts? If so, it might be that they were all compromised at once. Make sure to update your passwords and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) on each of them for extra security.
Yeah, I did use the same password for a lot of sites, but not for all of them, which makes it weirder. I’ve already enabled 2FA on most of my accounts. Thanks for the tip!
