Summary: | Thieler Law Corp advises investors with losses exceeding $100,000 of the November 26, 2018 lead plaintiff deadline in a class action lawsuit filed against Chegg Inc (NYSE: CHGG) (“Chegg” or “the Company”). The suit is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California and investors, who purchased Chegg Inc securities between July 30, 2018 and September 25, 2018, have until November 26, 2018 to move for lead plaintiff. You do not need to move for lead plaintiff to be a member of the Class. If you purchased Chegg Inc securities during the Class Period, and have losses over $100,000, you may contact Thieler Law Corp by calling at (619) 377 - 4324 or emailing mail@thielerlaw.com . No class has been certified in this case, and if your losses are less than $100,000 you are still a member of the class. The complaint alleges that during the Class Period defendants made false and misleading statements and/or allegedly failed to disclose that Chegg lacked adequate security measures to protect users’ data; Chegg lacked the internal controls and procedures to detect unauthorized access to its systems and to its data; as a result, Chegg would incur additional expenses and litigation risks; and as a result of the foregoing, defendants’ positive statements about Chegg’s business, operations, and prospects were materially false and/or misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. On September 25, 2018, the Company revealed that it had “learned that on or around April 29, 2018, an unauthorized party gained access to a Company database that hosts user data for chegg.com and certain of the Company’s family of brands such as EasyBib.” The Company revealed that approximately 40 million users’ data, including username, email address, shipping address, and hashed password, could have been obtained and that an investigation into the incident was ongoing. Following this news, NYSE: CHGG dropped over 12% to close at $28.42 on September 26, 2018, thereby injuring investors.
