The sun was slowly setting on the horizon, and the sky glowed a beautiful pink and orange. The streets of San Francisco were bustling with life and activity. It was a typical Friday night, and everyone was preparing for the weekend.

Lily was walking down the street, enjoying the warm summer air. She had just finished up her exams for the week, and was looking forward to the weekend. As she was walking, she felt her phone vibrate in her pocket. She reached in and pulled it out, only to discover a text from an unknown number.

The text said: "Reset your password. You have been hacked."

Lily's heart sank. She knew her passwords were strong, but she had been careless. She had been using the same password for all of her accounts, which had been a huge mistake. She quickly tried to think of a way to fix the situation, but her mind was blank.

She decided that the best thing to do was to go to the nearest cyber café and reset her password. She quickly walked to the nearest café and logged into her account. She changed her password and logged out.

When she got back to her apartment, she was relieved to find that her account was still secure. She had done the right thing by changing her password.

But then, a week later, she received another text from the same number. The text said: "You have been hacked. Reset your password."

Lily was starting to get worried. She had changed her password, but it seemed like the hacker was still able to get into her account. She knew she had to take drastic measures if she was going to keep her account safe.

She contacted a cyber security specialist, who informed her that her account had been compromised by a malicious hacker. He recommended that she use two-factor authentication for all of her accounts and to use a different, strong password for each one.

Lily followed the specialist's advice and changed her passwords for all of her accounts. She also began to use two-factor authentication for each account. She felt much better knowing that her accounts were now secure. And the policeman informed that a boy named Ruben had done all chaos.

Ruben, friend of lily was a prankster. He enjoyed playing pranks on his friends and family, and he was good at it. One day, he decided to take his pranking to another level. Ruben thought it would be funny to pretend to be a hacker and prank Lily.

Ruben created a fake hacker email address and sent Lily a message claiming to have access to all of her personal information. He then set up a fake website asking Lily to reset her password.

Ruben had succeeded in pranking his friend, and he was proud of his accomplishment. From then on, he was careful to never take his pranks too far and to always keep them lighthearted.

Lily also realized that she had learned a valuable lesson: never use the same password for all of your accounts, and always use two-factor authentication. She had been hacked, but she was able to reset her password and protect her accounts.
