couple sues mcdonalds over nude photos

[DeadPoolX 9]

While I agree the McDonald's staff shouldn't have looked through the nude pictures, it's not entirely their fault. The owner of the cell phone should have kept it on their belt, in their pocket or purse. If you leave something like that behind somewhere, you can't assume no one will look through it.

it is possible that they gave over the name and address when they reported the stolen phone.

Given how many people (*coughmostlywomencough*) lose their cell phones, this is why you keep the porn pictures at home, and not on your cell phone. Once you leave it elsewhere, especially in a public place like McDonalds, you expose yourself to losing your privacy. I wouldn't give these people a cent.

I have a password lock on all my nude photos on my phone

pm me with it..bosco has one of your phones here.

only if you take my shoes off ebay!

A US couple are suing McDonald's for £2m after nude photos of the woman, which were on her husband's mobile phone, ended up on the internet.

Phillip Sherman says he accidentally left his phone, with the photos, at a McDonald's in Fayetteville, Arkansas, reports the BBC.

He says staff promised to secure the phone until he could retrieve it.

But the Shermans claim they had to move home after the woman's name, address, and phone number appeared online along with the photos.

Tina Sherman says she began receiving offensive calls and text messages about the pictures from her husband's mobile phone after he left it at the McDonald's on 5 July.

The couple then discovered that the nude pictures she had sent to her husband's phone had been posted online.

The Shermans are suing McDonald's Corporation, the owner of the franchise involved and the restaurant's manager, saying they have suffered emotional distress, embarrassment and damage to their reputations.

McDonald's has so far refused to comment on the case.

Hmm, I'd like to give them the benefit of the doubt but I smell a rat......isn't this just another way of bringing a mouse into MC's and claiming to have found it in your burger?

Hope they didn't do the uploads themselves......

I still smell a rat....

How long did Mc'staff have the phone? Overnight? One hour? If one or two hours then where were the photos offloaded?

Questions, questions.......Not enough details to figure this one out but I'm sure the investigators will....

Hope this couple's on the Up'n Up........

technically, whatever website the photos were uploaded to will have a log of the ip used to upload them and whoever it was will be able to be traced, there are of course ways to hide who you are and if that occurred then that makes things slightly more complicated.

i also think it's a bit weird that if they moved house to escape abuse that they would publicize the story world wide with their full names...

as i said earlier, karma will come and get whoever did something wrong.

I truly despise these deep-pockets lawsuits.

#1, assuming this isn't a scam and happened as the couple claimed, then the woman was stupid to leave her cell phone with nude photos behind.

#2, the only McDonald's employees that should be sued are the ones who actually uploaded the photos.

#3, 2 million pounds is a slightly outrageous amount for this.
