I guess I am naive.
Based on your description of the circumstances I would have contacted them without giving a real thought to it beyond trying to do a good deed. My communication would include a brief explanation of how I came across the info and, as suggested above, that I was a fellow TV resident.
Being thought of as a stalker seems like a stretch to me.
Thanks for the heads up. If I recover any money Walt., you will be the first to know!
