That's pretty heavy security through obscurity. A more robust solution would be to have all of those passwords encrypted with a master key. You can make the script prompt you for the master key when you start it up, then it runs without needed any more input, but you aren't storing sensitive information.
A master key. Which would have to be included in the perl script... so that when they find the script, they have all my passwords instead of just a few. You've solved it. Why didn't I think of that?

Why the fuck would I want to sit around being a meat robot inputting 9 passwords at the beginning of each month just so I can have a copy of my bank statements and electric bill?
