"Under the [Telephone Consumer Protection Act], recipients of unsolicited
fax advertisements can file suit in state court to collect the greater of
$500 or actual damages for each violation, and/or obtain an injunction (a
single junk fax can, and often does, contain multiple violations). If a
court determines that the violations were willful or knowing, the damages
can be tripled at the discretion of the court."

What you say is true but trying to collect the $500 will be the most
difficult and frustrating money you've ever earned. Only a masochist
would even attempt it. ;-)
