angry tapir writes "Yahoo has won a lawsuit against spammers, a legal victory that also includes a default judgment of US$610 million. In the lawsuit, filed in May 2008, Yahoo targeted a variety of individuals and companies, accusing them of trying to scam people via a spam campaign that falsely informed email recipients that they had won prizes in a non-existent Yahoo-sponsored lottery."
