Pomerantz LLP is investigating Snap Inc. for alleged securities fraud and unlawful business practices. This investigation follows several incidents, including a European Union probe into Snap Inc.'s Snapchat platform over child safety and illegal product promotion concerns, which caused a 10.69% stock price drop on March 26, 2026. Additionally, the Mexico Attorney General filed a lawsuit against Snap Inc. in September 2024, alleging that its platform facilitates child sexual exploitation and that the company misled the public about its safety, leading to a 2.82% stock price decline. Earlier, in August 2024, Snap Inc.'s announcement of lower-than-expected Q2 2024 financial results and revenue guidance resulted in a 26.9% fall in its stock price.
