Course Hero Log in account

Greetings!

I can't access my account. It keeps on popping the wrong password or email notification. I even tried to log in using Facebook and Google option but nothing happen. It keeps directing me to the first option which is to log in directly using my account email and password. This happen since last night. I'd tried to troubleshoot by clearing my cache and cookies, even tried another browser and the forget password option but still nothing. Will you help me with this problem? Thank you.

Course Hero Requesting immediate removal of coursehero documents

My Google Account was hacked and someone uploaded some documents without my concern from my CourseHero account. All following documents violate Date Privacy Laws (U.S. Privacy Act) since all the documents contain email addresses, phone numbers, home address information, and full name. I DO NOT have any rights over these documents since none of these documents belong to me. The documents were uploaded without the original owner's consent, which clearly breaks the "Terms of Use" of CourseHero.

I emailed them multiple times regarding the removal of documents but they did not reply as of yet. I am requesting immediate help from Course Hero.
