Can anyone see where I live ?

[Sardi]

I am receiving some money through PayPal and usually, I am not concerned but this time I kinda am
the question is: Can someone or a business sending me money through PayPal see where I live (address) sending a payment through friends and family or Goods and services!



If I am in the wrong section please move this thread MODS, didn't know where to put it honestly!

If it’s sent as goods and services you can. I believe.

The buyer protection is available in the "Goods and services!" payment. So Your money will safe,

You could start a business relationship without any worries

No that's not an issue, a company is sending me money but I don't want them to see my location sending a payment through friends and family or Goods and services!

If someone is sending you money they will not see your address, that would be a huge privacy issue.

Maybe use a mailbox address like shipito?

This. OP, just think about it: If you could get address just by sending someone a few cents, no PayPal user would be safe from doxing. Malicious actors could even spam their mailing lists with micro payments to mine address data for a few cents since that many people use PayPal on their primary [email protected]

In a reverse scenario, when you are the one paying for something, you also have option to select your default address but I believe you’ll need to add more than 1 address to your PayPal account. Test with a friend and see what he sees, that should bring you some clarity and peace of mind.

If you buy/sell with crypto, only your crypto address is visible ( obvious) on the blockchain, not your personal data, if you want to take this a step further and be fully anonymous use Monero
