"$60,000 for our stolen photo: We made a copyright thief PAY!"

Well, this was pretty interesting.  :)

What a headache.

Shelma1:
And everyone got more money than they did. Sad.

HughStoneIan:
They make great points about lawyers. The lawyers will take most of your settlement and you may get something to make you feel a little betterr.. The video title says "We made a copyright thief PAY!" but both the thief and the plaintiffs ended up paying---their lawyers!

Thanks for posting this.

Their payoff wasn’t worth the hassle, but knowing the infringer had to shell out $60K+ would be satisfying that they’re not likely to make that mistake again

If there's anything to be learned it's that a polite first letter that encourages an apology is a good start, and try to firmly negotiate a settlement quickly. Lawyers make everything more expensive and more unpleasant.
