INVESTOR ALERT: Goldberg Law PC Announces a Securities Class Action Lawsuit against CenturyLink, Inc.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Goldberg Law PC, a national shareholder rights litigation firm, announces the filing of a class action lawsuit against CenturyLink, Inc. ("CenturyLink" or the "Company") (NYSE: CTL) for violations of §§10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Investors who purchased the Company's shares between February 27, 2014 and June 15, 2017, inclusive (the "Class Period"), are encouraged to contact the firm before August 21, 2017, the lead plaintiff motion deadline.

The class in this case has not yet been certified, and until certification occurs, you are not represented by an attorney. If you choose to take no action, you can remain an absent class member.

The Complaint alleges that during the Class Period, CenturyLink made materially false and misleading public statements, and/or failed to disclose material information, about its business and operations. Specifically, the Company allowed employees to add services or lines to accounts without customer permission, which resulted in millions of dollars in charges. On June 16, 2017, Bloomberg reported on a lawsuit filed by a former CenturyLink employee who alleges that her employment was terminated for blowing the whistle on the high-pressure sales culture that caused customers to pay millions of dollars for accounts they did not request, to Chief Executive Officer Glen Post. Following this news, CenturyLink's stock price dropped materially, which caused investors harm.
