Harwood Feffer LLP Announces Investigation of Xoom Corporation

NEW YORK, Jan. 8, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Harwood Feffer LLP (www.hfesq.com) is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of Xoom Corporation ("Xoom" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: XOOM), concerning whether the board has breached its fiduciary duties to shareholders.

On January 5, 2014, Xoom disclosed that it has been the victim of a criminal fraud involving employee impersonation resulting in a transfer of over $30 million in Company cash to overseas bank accounts.  The Company expects a one-time $30.8 million charge to its fourth quarter 2014 results.  On the same day, the Company announced that its CFO had resigned.

Our investigation concerns whether the Company board of directors has breached its fiduciary duties to shareholders, grossly mismanaged the Company, and/or committed abuses of control in connection with the foregoing.
