OK, I understand that. I’ve received a couple of these type things (not for TU) over the years and you are right ... they went straight into the trash. In one case, I think I later received a check for $5 or so from Netflix because I was part of a class action lawsuit that I didn’t intentionally join.
But my question is this ... if 30,000 of these cards went out and 90% of the folks didn’t bother but were signed up automatically, why isn’t the number of litigants 27,000 rather than the 5,000 reported? Where did the other 22,000 go?
Which brings me back to my original question -— how many people actually signed up for Trump University? If 5,000 of a million are dissatisfied, then their 98% satisfaction rate isn’t too far out of line. But that depends entirely on the number of people who took the course.

Reports are all over the map.
Some are reporting that seminar fees were $30,000 when they were actually $1500.
Megyn Kelly stated at the debate her staff ‘found’ the class to be certified at 30,000 litigants, not 5,000. But Megyn Kelly can’t always be believed.
To get accurate numbers, one will need to go to the court network where the case was filed and use PACE or some other service to download the filings.
dynoman linked to several documents on the case and may know of others:
