The amount may seem excessive, but she also faces the risk of someone stealing her identity.
I've worked computer repair and most of the people I worked with were very careful about keeping track of customers' equipment as well as safeguarding their hard drives. While she'll probably never get the $54 million, she should get enough to make these incompetents be more careful next time.
