The password is one of the password that I use. It is not one giving

I am careful with my accounts and passwords.
How can I prevent sort of password steal?
You can't!
The leak is not your fault but it, probably, comes from one of the
several
data theft companies―as Facebook, Google, Linkedin, ...―more or less
recently
suffered. Look at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_data_breaches
for a list more or less complete.
The only feasible trick you can adopt is to use a different password
for every
internet service you use so that if one is compromised all the other
are still
safe. Also change password often could help.
My 2¢
Walter
Beside the other possible ways of credential theft that is a likely way.
