“The phone just started ringing constantly after that from [an] ex-spouse to friends,” he told ABC’s Denver affiliate, KMGH.

Dewberry said he was logged into his Facebook account on the phone he left with the store in April 2011.

“I feel I have been humiliated. My reputation has been tarnished,” he said.

“Just having to explain it to certain people that I haven’t been in contact for a while,” he said. “I feel I shouldn’t have to do that.”

“What this really comes down to is how much people value their reputation,” said his attorney, Linda Lee. “There is no judgment against people who have that lifestyle, but the reality is he isn’t.”

A year after the incident, Dewberry said he is still explaining that Facebook status to acquaintances.

“The real problem with Best Buy is they didn’t seem to have any procedures or safeguards to make sure this doesn’t happen,” Lee said. “I have all sorts of information on my cell phone. For Best Buy not to have procedures to protect their customers’ privacy, that is a problem.”

Lee added that they are not planning to file a lawsuit at this point.

“This is not about a lawsuit. This is about protecting your customers’ privacy and having procedures and safeguards in place to make sure employees aren’t doing this,” she said.
