         Re:  Return Assured Incorporated - Registration Statement on Form S-3
              (File No. 333-53758) (the "Registration Statement")

Gentlemen:

         We are acting as counsel for Return Assured Incorporated, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the proposed sale by certain
selling stockholders (the "Selling Stockholders") pursuant to the Registration
Statement of up to 6,515,352 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value, of the
Company (the "Shares") and 1,401,333 shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value, of
the Company issuable upon exercise of warrants (the "Warrant Shares").

         We have examined such corporate records, certificates and other
documents as we have considered necessary for the purposes of this opinion. In
our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the
authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to
the original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies and the
authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. As to any facts material
to our opinion, we have, when relevant facts were not independently established,
relied upon the records, certificates and documents referred to above.

         Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been
duly authorized, and are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and that
the Warrant Shares have been duly authorized, and when the exercise price
thereof is paid pursuant to the respective terms of the warrants, will be
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable; provided, however, that of the
6,515,352 shares, 1,400,000 shares identified under "Selling Stockholders" in
the Registration Statement for PlasmaNet, Inc. have been duly authorized, and
when delivered in accordance with the Program Promotion Agreement between the
Company and PlasmaNet, Inc., dated December 15, 2000, will be validly issued,
fully paid and non-assessable.

         Our opinion is limited in all cases to matters arising under the
General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. We consent to the use of this
opinion as an Exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to our
firm under the caption "Legal Matters" in the prospectus that is a part of the
Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not concede that we are
within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the
Commission thereunder.

                                           Very truly yours,
                                           /s/ Kaplan Gottbetter & Levenson, LLP
