Mass personal information distribution
Of course, the more people you share your data with, the more people have access to your data. Duh - it's like grade school math. 1+1=2. You can ensure your own security, but unless you own the third party you can not ensure that their security is at the same standards of yours, and what's to prevent the third party from distributing that information to another third party, and that third party to another to another to another...

Pretty soon, everyone knows the information. This is the problem with sharing customer's personal information with third parties - it's like how the RIAA portrays backup software, once it is shared/copied/backed up once, it is likely to be shared/copied/backed up again.
