ORDER
DUFFEY, District Judge.
This matter is before the Court on Representative Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification [37]. On November 21, 2005, the Court conducted a hearing (the “Hearing”) on Plaintiffs’ motion.1
1. BACKGROUND
Plaintiffs bring claims against Defendant ChoicePoint Services Inc.2 (“Defendant” or “ChoicePoint”), under the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”), 15 U.S.C. § 1681, et [481]*481seq., for both willful (Count I)3 and negligent (Count II)4 violations of the FCRA. Specifically, Plaintiffs allege Defendant violated Section 1681g(a)(l) of the FCRA “by failing to disclose ‘all information in the consumer’s file at the time of the request ... ’ when requested by an individual and upon tender of the appropriate fee.” (First Am. Class Action Compl. (“Compl.”) H1 (quoting 15 U.S.C. § 1681g).)
Defendant is an operating company which, along with its subsidiaries, is in the business of “assembling or evaluating consumer credit information or other information on consumers for the purpose of furnishing consumer reports to third parties.” 15 U.S.C. § 1681a(f). (Defi’s Opp’n to Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 3.) The information gathered by Defendant includes insurance policy and claim data contributed by insurance companies. Defendant’s customers purchase this information in the form of “CLUE Auto” or “CLUE Property” reports. (Def.’s Opp’n to Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 3; Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 3.)5
Defendant maintains records of people who make requests for information maintained by Defendant about the consumer, classifying them as either (i) “curious” or (ii) “adversely affected” customers. (Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 6.) A “curious” consumer is “someone [who] just wants to see their report,” while an “adversely affected” consumer is “someone who has been ‘impacted’ by the issuance of a consumer report whether by the denial of insurance or otherwise.” (Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 7.)6
The named Plaintiffs in this lawsuit are Alex Campos (“Campos”) and Michael York (“York”). Both York and Campos were curious consumers who each sent Defendant an identical request7 for specific information from Defendant. The request stated:
Please send me a copy of my consumer report. I have enclosed a check in the amount of $9.00 in connection with this request. If you have any questions or concerns, or if you need more information, please contact me immediately. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation.
(Appendix in Support of Mot. for Class Cert. (“Class App.”) 0770, 0779.)
On July 7, 2003, Campos received a letter from Defendant, informing him that Defendant has two types of consumer reports— “C.L.U.E. Auto” and “C.L.U.E. Property.” The letter requested that Campos specify which report he wanted to receive, and enclose nine dollars per requested report. (Compl.1l 18.) On June 19, 2003, Defendant responded to York’s request by sending to him his CLUE Auto report, but not his CLUE Property report. (Id. HH 20-22.) Plaintiffs claim Defendant’s failure to provide Campos and York with all information contained in all their “files” when they requested their “consumer reports” violated Section 1681g(a)(l) of the FCRA.
Plaintiffs request certification of a class pursuant to Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 23(a) and 23(b)(3).8 Plaintiffs propose certifi[482]*482cation of a class consisting of “all persons since November 24, 2001 who requested that ChoicePoint disclose the contents of their files, who tendered the applicable disclosure fee, and to whom ChoicePoint failed to disclose all the information in their files.” (Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 5.) Plaintiffs’ proposed class includes both curious and adversely affected consumers. The size of the proposed class of curious consumers is approximately six thousand persons, while the size of the proposed class of adversely affected consumers is over one million individuals. (Def.’s Supplemental Br. in Opp’n to Mot. for Class Cert, at 2-3; Keen Aff. [46].)
Defendant opposes Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification on the following grounds: (i) the Court cannot determine membership in the proposed class without individualized inquiries, (ii) individual issues, including determinations of liability and damages, predominate over common ones, (iii) a class action is not the superior method to resolve this case, (iv) the representative Plaintiffs’ claims and defenses are not typical of affected persons’ claims, and (v) the representative Plaintiffs may have interests antagonistic to class members who suffered actual damages.9
II. DISCUSSION
A. Plaintiffs’ Claims Under Section 168 Ig
The underlying issue in this case is whether Defendant violated the FCRA by failing to disclose to requesting consumers all information Defendant maintains on them in their consumer “files” when they requested copies of their “consumer reports.” (Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 1.) The parties agree on a wide variety of Defendant’s practice of disclosing information to requesting consumers and how Defendant responded to Plaintiffs’ requests in particular. The parties have fundamentally different views of the requirements of the FCRA.
The purpose of the FCRA is “to require that consumer reporting agencies adopt reasonable procedures for meeting the needs of commerce for consumer credit, personnel, insurance, and other information in a manner which is fair and equitable to the consumer, with regard to the confidentiality, accuracy, relevancy, and proper utilization of such information in accordance with the requirements of this subchapter.” 15 U.S.C. § 1681(b).10 To ensure the accuracy of the information kept by a consumer reporting agency about a consumer, Section 1681g provides, in pertinent part:
Every consumer reporting agency shall, upon request, and subject to section 1681h(a)(l) of this title, clearly and accurately disclose to the consumer:
(1) All information in the consumer’s file at the time of the request ....
15 U.S.C. § 1681g(a). The FCRA defines “file” to include all information the consumer reporting agency has with respect to a particular consumer:
The term “file”, when used in connection with information on any consumer, means all of the information on that consumer recorded and retained by a consumer reporting agency regardless of how the information is stored.
15 U.S.C. § 1681a(g). The FCRA defines “consumer report” broadly to include any communication of information by a consumer reporting agency regarding a consumer:
The term “consumer report” means any written, oral, or other communication of any information by a consumer reporting agency bearing on a consumer’s credit worthiness, credit standing, credit capacity, character, general reputation, personal characteristics, or mode of living which is [483]*483used or expected to be used or collected in whole or in part for the purpose of serving as a factor in establishing the consumer’s eligibility for—
(A) credit or insurance to be used primarily for personal, family, or household purposes;
(B) employment purposes; or
(C) any other purpose authorized under section 1681b of this title.
15 U.S.C. § 1681a(d) (footnote omitted).11
Defendant argues it complied with the requirements of the FCRA. When Defendant receives a request from a curious person for disclosure of a consumer report, the request is routed to an information consultant. (Def.’s Opp’n to Pis’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 5.) This consultant tries to ascertain what information the consumer is requesting, and sends the consumer what he requested if it can be determined from the consumer’s request.12 If the consultant cannot determine what information the consumer is requesting, he asks the consumer to clarify the information request. This is what occurred when Plaintiff Campos requested “a copy of [his] consumer report,” and Defendant responded with a letter asking him which particular report he would like to receive.13
Defendant has a different procedure for disclosing information to consumers who have been adversely affected by information contained in a consumer report. When an adversely affected person contacts Defendant, Defendant determines which reports have been ordered by customers about that person and provides these reports to the adversely affected consumer, thereby disclosing to the consumer the information forming the basis of the adverse action. (Def.’s Opp’n to Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 7.)14
Defendant argues: “Remarkably, the representative plaintiffs take the position that even where a consumer requests a specific report, there is an absolute legal obligation to provide that consumer with every report that [Defendant] has compiled on that person.” (Def.’s Opp’n to Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 14.) Defendant believes “if the consumer does make a specific request for one type of report, ChoicePoint is obligated only to furnish that report.” (Def.’s Sur-Reply to Pis.’ Reply in Supp. of Mot. for Class Cert, at 4.)
Plaintiffs argue that once a consumer makes any “request” for information — in this ease a specific request for a “consumer report” — Defendant is obligated to disclose all information in that consumer’s “file.” (Hearing Tr. at 22-25.) Specifically, Plaintiffs claim Defendant “has no central function designed to provide all information in a particular consumer’s ‘file’ in order to provide a complete file disclosure when it receives a requests pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1681g(a),” and that Defendant sells subdivisions of a consumer’s file, including property-loss claims and auto-loss claims, separately for nine dollars each. (Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 8-9.) Plaintiffs claim Defendant violates the FCRA in two different ways. First, when it receives a request for a consumer report from a curious person, Defendant asks them whether they want a property insurance report or an auto insurance report, instead of providing a complete disclosure of all “file” information. Second, when it receives a request for a consumer report from an adversely affected consumer, Defendant re[484]*484sponds by providing only the portion of the person’s “file” that relates to the adverse action. Plaintiffs argue both actions violate the FCRA because, under either method, the individual making the request does not receive all the information in his “file.” (Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 10-11.)
The Court is wary of analyzing the merits of Plaintiffs’ claims at this stage of the proceedings. However, the Court must identify the contours of Plaintiffs’ claims to analyze whether class certification is appropriate, and, if it is, which consumers should be included in the class. See Cooper v. Southern Co., 390 F.3d 695, 712 (11th Cir.2004) (noting “evidence pertaining to the requirements embodied in Rule 23 is often intertwined with the merits”).
The issue presented by Plaintiffs’ claims is whether a consumer reporting agency is obligated to disclose to the consumer all information in the consumer’s file when the consumer requests a “consumer report.” The parties do not dispute that if a consumer requests his “file” from Defendant, then Defendant is obligated to disclose the entire file. Where the parties differ, is the extent of Defendant’s obligation when the consumer makes a specific request for a “consumer report.” This difference appears to stem from the parties’ divergent interpretations of a Section 1681g “request.” Defendant contends, and its policy was, that where a consumer makes a request for a consumer report or a particular portion of the file (e.g., CLUE Auto report), Defendant can simply disclose that particular portion of the file. Plaintiffs contend that even if the consumer requests a consumer report, or any specific set of information, Defendant is obligated to disclose the entire file.15 The question is whether this claim is properly prosecuted as a class action.
B. Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification
“The initial burden of proof to establish the propriety of class certification rests with the advocate of the class.” Rutstein v. Avis Rent-A-Car Sys. Inc., 211 F.3d 1228, 1233 (11th Cir.2000). In considering class certification, the Court must accept as true all allegations in Plaintiffs’ complaint, and not reach the merits of the complaint or weigh evidence. See Eisen v. Carlisle & Jacquelin, 417 U.S. 156, 177-78, 94 S.Ct. 2140, 40 L.Ed.2d 732 (1974); In re Theragenics Corp. Sec. Litig., 205 F.R.D. 687, 694 (N.D.Ga.2002). However, the Eleventh Circuit has noted:
[W]hile it is true that a trial court may not properly reach the merits of a claim when determining whether class certification is warranted, this principle should not be talismanically invoked to artificially limit a trial court’s examination of the factors necessary to a reasoned determination of whether a plaintiff has met her burden of establishing each of the Rule 23 class action requirements.... [E]vidence pertaining to the requirements embodied in Rule 23 is often intertwined with the merits, making it impossible to meaningfully address the Rule 23 criteria without at least touching on the ‘merits’ of the litigation.
Cooper, 390 F.3d at 712.
To maintain this case as a class action, Plaintiffs must satisfy all the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23(a) and at least one of the requirements of Rule 23(b). See Fed.R.Civ.P. 23(a)-(b); Rutstein, 211 F.3d at 1233. The Court will evaluate Plaintiffs’ motion to certify (i) a class of curious [485]*485consumers, and (ii) a class of curious and adversely affected consumers.
C. Rzile 23(a)
Rule 23(a) provides:
One or more members of a class may sue or be sued as representative parties on behalf of all only if (1) the class is so numerous that joinder of all members is impracticable, (2) there are questions of law or fact common to the class, (3) the claims or defenses of the representative parties are typical of the claims or defenses of the class, and (4) the representative parties will fairly and adequately protect the interests of the class.
Fed.R.Civ.P. 23(a). “These four requirements commonly are referred to as the prerequisites of numerosity, commonality, typicality, and adequacy of representation, and they are designed to limit class claims to those fairly encompassed by the named plaintiffs’ individual claims.” Piazza v. Ebsco Indus., Inc., 273 F.3d 1341, 1346 (11th Cir.2001) (quotation and citation omitted).
1. Numerosity
To satisfy the numerosity requirement, Plaintiffs must establish that the members of the proposed class and subclass are “so numerous that joinder of all members is impracticable.” Fed.R.Civ.P. 23(a). In determining whether the proposed class contains a sufficient number of members, the Court is permitted to “make common sense assumptions in order to find support for numerosity.” Evans v. U.S. Pipe & Foundry, 696 F.2d 925, 930 (11th Cir.1983).
Defendant does not contest numerosity. Having reviewed the evidence of record, including evidence that a class of curious consumers would consist of approximately six thousand members and a class of both curious and adversely affected consumers would consist of approximately one million members, the Court finds that both proposed classes meet the numerosity requirement. See generally Cox v. Am. Cast Iron Pipe Co., 784 F.2d 1546, 1553 (11th Cir.1986) (noting classes of more than forty members typically satisfy the numerosity requirement).
2. Commonality
To satisfy the commonality requirement, Plaintiffs must demonstrate that questions of law or fact are common to the entire class. Fed.R.Civ.P. 23(a). “It is not necessary that all questions of law and fact be common.” In re Theragenics Corp. Sec. Litig., 205 F.R.D. at 694. Instead, the commonality inquiry “focuses on whether a sufficient nexus exists between the legal claims of the named class representatives and those of individual class members to warrant class certification.” Piazza, 273 F.3d at 1347; see also Cooper, 390 F.3d at 714 (“Nevertheless, the named plaintiffs’ claims must still share the same essential characteristics as the claims of the class at large.”).
With regards to the proposed class of curious consumers, the Court concludes Plaintiffs have satisfied the commonality requirement with respect to other consumers who have requested Defendant to provide them with a “consumer report.” Specifically, the Court finds this case presents the question whether Defendant violated the FCRA by not providing a consumer’s entire file in response to requests from curious consumers for “consumer reports.”16 The central issue in the case — whether Defendant violated the FCRA in failing to disclose the entire file upon request for a consumer report by a curious consumer — arises out of Defendant’s standardized method of responding to requests by curious consumers, and is common to each potential class member. This common question of statutory interpretation, deriving from Defendant’s standardized business practice, makes Plaintiffs’ claims appropriate for treatment as a class action.17
[486]*486However, the Court finds the proposed class including adversely affected consumers does not satisfy the commonality requirement. Although the issues presented by both sets of consumers concern the same provision of the FCRA, the differences between the adversely affected and curious consumers are substantial. Plaintiffs have only submitted evidence regarding one type of request made by curious consumers, and have not demonstrated that adversely affected consumers made similar requests.18 The Court observes it is reasonable to assume that requests made by those who have been adversely affected would differ substantially from those made by curious consumers. For example, it is likely a request from an adversely affected consumer would request specific information about the information leading to the adverse event, as opposed to a more general request likely made by a curious consumer. In contrast to the generalized commonality among the requests from curious consumers, the requests from adversely affected consumers are likely to be different from those of curious consumers.19 The content, form and scope of the requests made by each group also likely could affect the ultimate determination of Defendant’s obligations under the FCRA.20
It is also reasonable to assume the damages suffered by curious and adversely affected consumers also would differ in substantial respects. The FCRA allows for recovery of actual damages in the form of “either out-of-pocket losses, or ... humiliation or mental distress [damages], or both.” Riley v. Equifax Credit Info. Servs., 194 F.Supp.2d 1239, 1244 (S.D.Ala.2002). Adversely affected consumers are more likely to have suffered, and seek to recover, actual damages. For purposes of determining the motion before it, however, the Court only must find that Plaintiffs failed to establish commonality amongst the adversely affected and curious consumers, and certification of a class including adversely affected members is not appropriate.
3. Typicality
The typicality requirement is satisfied if the claims of the class representatives are typical of the claims of the class members. “Typicality measures whether a sufficient nexus exists between the claims of the named representatives and those of the class at large.” Cooper, 390 F.3d at 713. The typicality requirement is closely related to the commonality requirement under Rule 23(a). While “commonality refers to the group characteristics as a whole ... typicality refers to the individual characteristics of the named plaintiff in relation to the class.” Piazza, 273 F.3d at 1346. “In making this determination, we have concluded that a strong similarity of legal theories will satisfy the typicality requirement despite substantial factual differences.” Piazza, 273 F.3d at 1351. “However, we do require that the named representatives’ claims share the same essential characteristics as the claims of the class at large.” Prado-Steiman v. Bush, 221 F.3d 1266, 1279 n. 14 (11th Cir.2000) (quotation and citation omitted).
For the reasons stated above regarding commonality, the Court finds the representative Plaintiffs’ claims and defenses are typical of those of the proposed class of curious consumers requesting consumer reports. Plaintiffs’ claims arise from the same course of conduct as the claims of other proposed class members — Defendant’s alleged practice of failing to disclose the consumer’s entire file upon request by a curious consumer. [487]*487Plaintiffs’ claims are also based on the same legal theory as the claims of other proposed class members — that Defendant’s disclosure policy violates the FCRA. Accordingly, Plaintiffs satisfy the typicality requirement with regards to the proposed class of curious consumers.
However, for the reasons stated above with regards to the commonality requirement, Plaintiffs’ claims are not typical of those of the proposed class of adversely affected consumers, including substantial differences with regards to liability and damages. Plaintiffs do not claim to be adversely affected consumers and the record is devoid of information for the Court to evaluate how, if at all, the claims they allege are typical of claims that could be asserted by adversely affected consumers. Accordingly, Plaintiffs have not satisfied their burden with respect to the typicality requirement for adversely affected consumers.21
4. Adequacy of Representation
To satisfy the adequacy of representation requirement, the class representatives must demonstrate they have “common interests with unnamed class members and will vigorously prosecute the interests of the class through qualified counsel.” Piazza, 273 F.3d at 1346. This requirement applies to both the named plaintiff and counsel. See London v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., 340 F.3d 1246, 1253 (11th Cir.2003). In evaluating the adequacy factor, the Court follows the “general principle that adequacy of representation is primarily based on the forthrightness and vigor with which the representative party can be expected to assert and defend the interests of the class and whether plaintiffs have interests antagonistic to those of the rest of the class.” London, 340 F.3d at 1254 (quotation and citation omitted).
Defendant does not challenge that counsel for the representative Plaintiffs are experienced, qualified and generally able to conduct the litigation. The Court’s review of the parties’ pleadings and the argument of counsel at the Hearing indicates to the Court that adequacy of counsel is not an issue here. {See also Pietz Decl., attached to Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert.) The question is whether Plaintiffs can demonstrate that the representative Plaintiffs meet the requirements for adequacy of representation of either of the classes alleged.
The class representatives are curious consumers, and do not claim to have been adversely affected. It is undisputed the case was instituted as a curious consumer’s request and not a complaint that Defendant has provided any information that had any adverse impact on the class representatives. Having reviewed the parties’ submissions, it appears the class representatives are interested in this litigation and will adequately represent and advocate on behalf of the class of curious consumers. There is no evidence before the Court from which the Court can conclude Plaintiffs will adequately represent the interests of those who have been adversely affected. Of particular concern to the Court is the motivations of these two subsets of proposed class members. The curious consumers, including the named Plaintiffs, appear mostly interested in “making a point.” This is evidenced by the fact that both named Plaintiffs obtained the forms they used to make their request from class counsel. (Def.’s Opp’n to Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 8.) However, the Court assumes, and in the absence of any information provided by Plaintiffs can only assume, that adversely affected consumers may have suffered actual injury and may seek to vindicate a violation of their rights more vigorously, as well as seek damages above and beyond those sought by simply curious consumers. The Court’s experience in litigation brought by adversely affected consumers is they are [488]*488more emotionally and personally invested in the litigation they instituted. Their attitude in litigation is distinctly different from what the Court has observed of the representatives and their lawyers in this case. Accordingly, while the Court finds Plaintiffs have established the adequacy of representation requirement has been met with regards to the proposed class of curious consumers, they have not for the proposed class including adversely affected consumers.
D. Rule 23(b)
To certify a class, Plaintiffs also must satisfy one of the requirements of Rule 23(b). To satisfy their Rule 23(b) requirement, Plaintiffs proceed under Rule 23(b)(3). Under Rule 23(b)(3), the Court considers (i) whether “questions of law or fact common to the members of the class predominate over any questions affecting only individual members,” and (ii) whether “a class action is superior to other available methods for the fair and efficient adjudication of the controversy.” Fed.R.Civ.P. 23(b)(3). These requirements are commonly referred to as the predominance and superiority requirements.
1. Predominance
To satisfy the predominance requirement, “the issues in the class action that are subject to generalized proof, and thus applicable to the class as a whole, must predominate over those issues that are subject only to individualized proof. The predominance inquiry focuses on the legal or factual questions that qualify each class member’s case as a genuine controversy, and is far more demanding than Rule 23(a)’s commonality requirement.” Rutstein, 211 F.3d at 1233 (quotation and citation omitted). To determine whether common questions predominate, the Court must examine the cause of action asserted in the complaint on behalf of the putative class and consider what value the resolution of the class-wide issue will have in each class member’s underlying cause of action. Id. at 1234. “Where, after adjudication of the classwide issues, plaintiffs must still introduce a great deal of individualized proof or argue a number of individualized legal points to establish most or all of the elements of their individual claims, such claims are not suitable for class certification under Rule 23(b)(3).” Klay v. Humana, Inc., 382 F.3d 1241, 1255 (11th Cir.2004). That damages must be calculated for individual class members does not bar class certification, if the damages “can be computed according to some formula, statistical analysis, or other easy or essentially mechanical methods ____” Klay, 382 F.3d at 1259-60.
Defendant claims individual issues predominate over common ones. Defendant first argues the class itself cannot be determined absent individual inquiries into what the particular consumer requested. “[A] proposed class is permissible under Rule 23 so long as it is not too amorphous or incapable of a reasonably precise definition____Case law is clear that there is no requirement that every classmember, other than the named plaintiffs, be identified at the outset of the litigation. Instead, a class definition is necessary only to establish that the class does, in fact, exist and that its members will be identifiable.” Neumont v. Monroe County, Fla., 198 F.R.D. 554, 557-58 (S.D.Fla.2000). Here, Counsel for Defendant stated it would be possible to examine the files of most members of the proposed class of curious consumers to determine which consumers requested general or specific information. (Hearing Tr. at 79-80.)
The Court also has an obligation to specify the class so it is identifiable. Here, the representative Plaintiffs requested from Defendant a “consumer report” — a term defined by Section 1681(a). Plaintiffs contend this request entitled them to all information in their files, while Defendant argues they were entitled only what they specifically requested. Because Plaintiffs’ use of a term defined by the FCRA is significant in determining the scope of Plaintiffs’ request and Defendant’s resulting obligation to disclose information, common questions of law and fact predominate here only if the class is limited to members who were curious and specifically requested a “consumer report.”
Defendant also argues individualized inquiries are necessary for determinations of both negligence and willfulness. The Court does not agree. In this case, the parties essential[489]*489ly agree about the method by which Defendant discloses information to consumers upon their request. The question before the Court is whether Defendant’s practice violates the FCRA — a matter of statutory interpretation.
Defendant’s arguments regarding the necessity of individualized inquiries are overcome by the common questions presented by the curious class members’ claims. The focal point of this action is Defendant’s alleged, and admitted (see Hearing Tr. at 67-71), practice of responding to curious consumer’s requests for a consumer report in a manner which allegedly violates the FCRA. The issues of law and fact which stem from Defendant’s policy predominate over individual issues. Because common issues of law and fact are likely to dominate the proceedings for curious consumers who requested a “consumer report,” common questions of law and fact predominate.
However, for the reasons stated above regarding Plaintiffs’ failure to establish commonality and typicality for adversely affected consumers, including the factual differences in the form and substance of requests made, Defendant’s response to such requests, and the differences in damages sought, the Court finds Plaintiffs have failed to establish that common issues of law and fact predominate a class defined to include adversely affected consumers.
2. Superiority
The superiority requirement requires Plaintiffs to demonstrate the class action is the superior method for adjudication of the controversy. The Court’s “focus is not on the convenience or burden of a class action suit per se, but on the relative advantages of a class action suit over whatever other forms of litigation might be realistically available to the plaintiffs.” Klay, 382 F.3d at 1269. Rule 23(b)(3) suggests four factors for the Court to consider in making this determination: (1) the interest of members of the class in individually controlling their claim, (2) other litigation already commenced by members of the class, (3) the desirability or undesirability of concentrating the litigation of the claims in the particular forum,22 and (4) the difficulties likely to be encountered in the management of a class action. Fed.R.Civ.P. 23(b)(3); Klay, 382 F.3d at 1269. In London v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., 340 F.3d 1246 (11th Cir.2003), the Eleventh Circuit expressed doubt whether class certification could meet the superiority requirement where:
the alleged illegality of the contracts at issue here occurred through the [defendant’s] failure to follow the requirements of a complex regulatory scheme, subject to different reasonable interpretations. In addition, the plaintiffs suffered no economic harm. Under such circumstances, even though economic harm is not an element of the [underlying claim], it may be required for superiority under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. This is especially likely when, as in the present suit, the defendants’ potential liability would be enormous and completely out of proportion to any harm suffered by the plaintiff.
London, 340 F.3d at 1255 n. 5. In Klay, however, the Court was not disturbed by the potential for large damages because the alleged RICO violations were predicated upon serious federal criminal acts.
With regards to the proposed class of curious consumers who requested a consumer report, the Court finds the superiority requirement has been met. First, as discussed previously, this action concerns a set of legal and factual issues which are shared by the members of the class who requested a consumer report, and class certification is more efficient than individual suits at addressing these common questions. The Court also believes that the consumer protection pur[490]*490poses of the FCRA are furthered by certification of a class to address the issue raised in this action.
Second, the potential recovery for each curious consumer is minimal. In such situations, a class action is superior to individual actions for which attorneys and aggrieved consumers will have little motivation to bring suit. This is evidenced by the parties’ representations that there are no other lawsuits which have been filed to address this particular issue. (Pis.’ Mot. for Class Cert, at 22.)
Finally, a class action would be a more efficient use of judicial resources than trying individual cases. The result of denial of class certification could be the filing of other lawsuits which seek to litigate nearly identical, if not identical, claims.
However, with regards to the proposed class which includes the adversely affected consumers, the Court finds the superiority requirement has not been met. The FCRA provides sufficient motivation for adversely affected individuals to bring suit and for attorneys to represent them. The statute allows for the recovery of actual damages, including emotional distress damages, which are more plausible for those who have been adversely affected than those who are only curious, and such damages, along with the statutory provision entitling a plaintiff to recover costs and attorney’s fees, should provide sufficient motivation for individual adversely affected plaintiffs to bring suit.
Furthermore, if the Court were to certify a class of over one million individuals, the concerns mentioned in Klay and London would be implicated. The statute provides for damages between $100 and $1000, and the proposed class of adversely affected persons consists of approximately one million individuals, and thus Defendant’s potential liability could exceed one billion dollars. The statutory provision which Defendant allegedly violates is, at most, ambiguous. Unlike Klay, here there exists substantial danger that “plaintiffs are attempting to obtain a windfall based on minor or technical violations,” Klay, 382 F.3d at 1272, which Plaintiffs claim at most discloses a possible ambiguity in the statute. “[D]efendant[’s] potential liability would be enormous and completely out of proportion to any harm suffered by the plaintiff.” London, 340 F.3d at 1255 n. 5. For these reasons, Plaintiffs have not established that a class action is a superior method to resolve the claims of adversely affected individuals.
III. CONCLUSION
For the reasons stated above,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiffs’ Motion for Class Certification [37] is GRANTED IN PART and DENIED IN PART. The Court GRANTS Plaintiffs’ motion to certify a class of curious consumers, consisting of all persons since November 24, 2001 who requested that ChoicePoint disclose their “consumer report,” who tendered the applicable disclosure fee, and to whom ChoicePoint failed to disclose all the information in their files. The Court DENIES Plaintiffs’ motion to certify a broader class including all curious consumers or a class including adversely affected consumers.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Plaintiffs’ Motion for Permission for the Law Firm of Lidsky, Vaccaro & Montes and R. Joseph Costanzo, Jr. to Withdraw as Co-Counsel and to Appoint Malakoff, Doyle and Finberg, P.C., as the Lead Counsel for the Representative and Proposed Class Plaintiffs [53] is GRANTED. Counsels’ withdrawal is conditioned on their providing the Court assurance they no longer have an economic interest in or control over the litigation.
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the parties shall submit to the Court, on or before April 17, 2006, a detailed plan of discovery which provides for the completion of discovery by August 1, 2006.
