Probably because he sees it as part of his job as secretary of
Humbug. If someone or something is sending emails falsely
claiming to be from Humbug, then a warning from the secretary
doesn't sound like a bad idea to me.
Besides, he is a volunteer who is taking his job seriously.
Even if sending the warning wasn't the right thing to do, it
is nice to see someone making the effort.
