Don't do this. It's illegal in most countries and could result in criminal charges.
Instead, DM them and ask "Hey, is your password for x still y"? That's usually enough for people to feel vulnerable and start to take this shit seriously.
Yes. And if possible message them with encrypted messaging, like signal or at least Whatsapp, not discord. Then again, the credentials are already public.
