I think the concern is users feeling compelled to find this women's name and information and then contacting her thinking they are helping, and then multiply that by the dozens, hundreds, or thousands.
Yeah, it's likely this. Mix in a couple malicious actors looking to ruin her life on top of the spam, and it's a PR disaster for Lemmy, just waiting to happen.
