From the thread Invoiced from Getty Images for Unlawful Use of Images? Perhaps it could be useful for you.

remove picture from your site & replace with known no problem one.(take picture with your digital camera !) send them above text & ask them what financial loss they can prove to have suffered by you using the picture ( if they give you the sort of proof it is theirs which would stand up in court) in the uk I understand from a publisher friend of mine loss must be proved to get damages to the value of that loss. are they in another part of the world? if so would be very expensive & time consuming to sue you.then leave it for them to reply. or as stated before remove picture & ignore them & see what happens (goto: beginning)
