Person in dorm hall displaying personal information

by acracker . Updated 19 years, 8 months ago

Ok so the other day I was browsing through shared folders on my university’s network looking for music when I came to a shared .pdf document on someone’s computer that showed all their personal information (Name, DOB, Social Security Number, residence ect…) I don’t have any kind of superuser access to the network so this document is availiable to anyone to see and access. How do I tell this person that they are sharing files they shouldn’t be? I don’t want them to think that I hacked into their computer because I didn’t and I would never exploit someone’s personal information.
Thanks for any ideas,
Ac
