Ever been to hackerwhacker.com? A security professional sent me this link (not kidding, no names.) Check out the FUD mongery from the front page:
"Has your competition hired hackers to take you out?
Could a disgruntled employee wipe out your network?
Is your job on the line for corporate security?
Are you sure your firewall settings are accurate?
Could hackers get you hit with a multimillion dollar cyber lawsuit?..." (etc)
My personal favorite is the part about hackers and the lawsuit; I'm not sure if this means that the hackers will actually sue you or if something they do would make someone else sue you. Either way is funny, but I like the first one better. I can imagine the landmark precident-setting case now - "M1n10nz of H3ll vs. citicorp".
