OK, I got it. But how much can the top person get? Maybe the company doing the math /sending checks takes $1.5 million.

In short, it's a scam, like most lawsuit settlements. The lawyers get rich, the state gets some fines and the company admits no wrongdoing and does it again and again.

I was picking on inaccurate headline. I hate inaccurate headlines - most people don't read all articles and thus end up believing nonsense when a headline is invalidated by its article.

RE this settlement being a scam - yeah, I feel the same way.
