I believe I heard of a case in Germany where someone
sold a bunch
of CC photos from Wikimedia Commons with the claim that the photos were a
"private collection", although I can't seem to find a news link for that
so
I could be mistaken.
This was mentioned by the head of the Bundesarchiv image department
who saw printouts of cc licensed Bundesarchiv images on ebay - without
attribution. I have no information about the current state of
enforcement.
Unrelated to that, my wife successfully enforced the CC license terms
three times (out of three). A French TV station settled out of court,
a far right wing party and an islamist group had to be sued, one case
is mentioned at
