During my visit to bankruptcy court last week regarding the OptInRealBig and Scott Richter cases, I noted that there were quite a few large creditors present, but not a lot of little ones. I am not sure if people realize this, but if you were the recipient of spam from OptInRealBig.com or its affiliates, you too may have a claim against the company.
While you have to be certain in your facts, there is a way for you to obtain information on filing a claim or even joining the creditors’ committee (should one ever be formed – I do not think this has happened yet).
How pray tell? Just ask Spamroll..
I’ve posted a form letter below that you can use for the purpose. You can copy and paste the contents into your favorite word processor.

Dear Mr. Weiss,
As a recipient of unlawful email advertising from OPTINREALBIG.COM, LLC, I believe I am an unsecured creditor in the bankruptcy proceedings. I am interested in joining (or forming) a creditor’s committee and would be willing to actively serve on such a committee.
Even if a creditor’s committee is not created, I would like to file a proof of claim. Please send a form for making such a claim to:
[address]
Also, please add me to your alert list, regarding any relevant dates that might affect my rights.
Thank you for your assistance.
Best Regards,
/s/
