Scott Richter of Westminster, Colorado, must pay MySpace $4.8 million in damages and $1.2 million in legal fees. Richter had been sued by MySpace in January 2007 in connection with an August 2006 campaign. The messages were sent from phished MySpace accounts, court-appointed arbitrator says. MySpace says Richter award is latest in a series of steps it has taken to combat abuse on its Web site. In May, MySpace was awarded a $230 million antispam judgment against Sanford Wallace and Walter Rines.”]
