Default Gambling site blackmailed?

from link:
""Without you knowing it, hackers will use your computer for a variety of purposes like sending out spam, or distributing denial of service attacks, or even blackmailing other Web sites. There was a case where hackers blackmailed a gambling site and said they would bring down the site for a few days unless they were paid thousands of dollars" Cluley said."
