This would be a type of identity theft. Identity theft is deliberately gaining and using someone elses identity, generally to gain financial favor or money. In this case, gaining passwords would generally be a cyber crime because it is done online and then they gain valuable personal information that can lead to identity theft, fraud or numerous other crimes.
