Arrived to day purporting to be from US District Court in
Philadelphia,
supposed to be for a refund of fees charged to Visa, Mastercard and
Diners Club for overseas transaction between Feb 1 1996 and November
8, 2006.

They enclose a form for claiming the refund or you
can file at a website.


Yes. I visited Italy during that time frame for ten days. It was a very
low cost trip due to the exchange rate at the time and I actually paid
for most things with cash from an ATM, not credit card, so I sent in the
standard form to request my $25. Its not much, but it will be $25 I
wouldn't have otherwise received. Others might be eligible for a larger
payment.

I am wondering how they estimate the payout for second form.
All you do is state the number of days you were outside the US.
That treats Mr. Economy Traveler the same as Daddy Warbucks.
