[Closed] Neighbour spotted going through the recycling. Any suggestions?

And it's not the first time either. There's a couple living in a top floor flat across the road that moved in around 6-9 months ago. Mrs deadly had seen them going through the recycling once everybody's gone to work but before the recycling people come round. Specifically, it's the paper recycling they go through, not the bottles and cans. Another neighbour with whom we're good friends says she'd seen them doing it as well, shortly after moving in. Now, they hadn't been seen doing it for ages but I just had a text from mrs deadly to say she's seen it again this morning. So what are they up to? Giving them the benefit of the doubt, I'm of the thought that they're probably looking for magazines etc. that people have thrown out. On the other hand, the suspicious side of me wonders if they're looking for stuff with peoples' names and addresses. If the latter was the case, doing it in broad daylight seems a bit daft. I'm not sure whether to have a word with them or not now. The bloke is a single speeder of the "fakenger" variety, which doesn't really fit in with the profile of an identity theft operation and seems friendly and always says hello when we pass. I don't want to seem like a horrible neighbour but a few of the rest of us are a bit concerned. Over to you lot. Any suggestions?

Is this national thread resurrection week or something?
Are people just trawling through the archives looking for interesting stuff? (quite relevant given the topic of this particular thread!)

I'm disappointed that the lynch mob confrontation of the offending peoples didn't end violently. 🙁
