The English language article in the original post failed to mention that beside the fines, the two guys also have to pay back damages, which totals EUR 16.827 and EUR 2.652 respectively.
According to the Dutch article at [webwereld.nl...] (mods, please remove link if not appropriate) we are not talking about the big guys in the on-line crime scene. They blackmailed two companies by threatening to take their website down. One company they asked $2100, the other EUR 2652, which is roughly $3450.
