If you're not sure about other images, you should remove them to be safe, there are many companies trolling, and you may be targeted by them going forward.
If you pay the 150.00, be sure to get something in writing to end it.

Do a reverse image search on tineye and google to find out the origin of the other images. I would recommend removing all the images you do not have copyright or license to use, this is how they "get you" as you have learned.

If you want to take it even further, have your site deleted off the archive.org, not that other archives might exist. Just a precaution.

LCS represents Agence France Press. I have seen them before.  Lots of their amounts are really low settlement amounts. I almost never see low settlement amounts of under $200. I guess LCS is getting smarter about making it easy for people to pay.
