Ok, but it also says "up to" and the media ALWAYS uses the biggest number to spin it into a headline. Some probably had fees of a few thousand but they don't tell you that part. Still doesn't seem so "Major" to me.

Major from a consumer stand point yes, not major from a business point of view if you are a medium to large business. Will seem pretty steep for a small business.

Either way money is money and that's enough to buy a few Hummers.

You're probably right. Of the 15, some probably had fees totalling a few thousand, and a few 10's of thousands and only one or two with 100's of thousands, still, that's probably at least $400,000 of money lost to those companies, and $1,000,000 gained for a duo.
