Even if it is fraud and I doubt it is (you'd have to prove all these "Fraud must be proved by showing that the defendant's actions involved five separate elements: (1) a false statement of a material fact,(2) knowledge on the part of the defendant that the statement is untrue, (3) intent on the part of the defendant to deceive the alleged victim, (4) justifiable reliance by the alleged victim on the statement, and (5) injury to the alleged victim as a result. These elements contain nuances that are not all easily proved. First, not all false statements are fraudulent. To be fraudulent, a false statement must relate to a material fact. It should also substantially affect a person's decision to enter into a contract or pursue a certain course of action. A false statement of fact that does not bear on the disputed transaction will not be considered fraudulent."). I doubt they would prosecute. You have to think it takes money to prosecute and the damages per person are only a couple of cents. They would enviably use scare tactics to try to get you to settle, and like the RIAA if you wouldn't they would most likely just drop the charges, and even if you payed them tracking you down would cost more than they would collect. After all the mail isn't free especially if allot of the payments were international.
