**Radnor, PA (September 23, 2024) -** A securities class action lawsuit has been filed against PDD Holdings Inc., formerly known as Pinduoduo Inc., in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York. The lawsuit, filed by Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP, alleges that PDD misled investors about its business practices and potential risks.
The lawsuit claims that between April 30, 2021 and June 25, 2024, PDD made false and misleading statements regarding its platform’s security and compliance with regulations. Specifically, the complaint alleges that:
* PDD’s applications contained malware designed to collect user data without their consent.
* The company lacked effective measures to prevent the sale of goods produced through forced labor on its platform.
* PDD openly sold banned products on its Temu platform, further increasing the risk of legal and political scrutiny.
As a result of these alleged actions, PDD investors may have suffered losses due to the company’s inflated stock price.
The lead plaintiff deadline for investors who wish to join the lawsuit is October 15, 2024. Those who suffered losses during the class period are encouraged to contact Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP for more information.
