As a non-contested 'defendant never showed up' default judgement, it is worth little. It cannot be used as precident for other cases (although some will certainly try). Had the defendants even shown up, the amount would probably be VERY small.

Until the FTC steps up and starts to prosecute EVERY misleading spam they see, well, the scammers will be out there.
