How To Block Someone On Paypal

At the top of your account page, click on the “Profile” option. When the page loads, click the “My PreApproved Payments” button under the financial details title. Choose the merchant name you want to prevent from receiving any more PayPal debits.

If you wish to use your pen name as your business name or something similar to hide your real name when sending money to people through PayPal, you must use your pen name as your business name or something similar. Although the recipient will not see your name, you must include your full name.

Open the unwelcome email from PayPal (or the email from the company you purchased a product from via PayPal) and click the “Block” option on the message’s toolbar after signing up for a Block Sender account and linking your Gmail account to Block Sender. Choose “Emails from this sender” from the drop-down menu.

As I previously stated, you cannot prevent someone from making you payments, money requests, or engaging with you directly using PayPal. By simply ignoring unsolicited money demands or payment notes, you can avoid them.

If you send money to a seller in exchange for an item, the seller will get your name, address, and email address. This information will be included in the shipment of your item. You will only see the seller’s email address if you do not want the seller’s shipping details.

On personal accounts, PayPal requires users to use their true identities. You’ll need to set up a business account if you don’t want people you exchange money with on PayPal to know your true name.

To make anonymous online payments, PayPal requires you to register a payment card or bank account. When you make a transaction, you will only see your registered name and e-mail address. You can avoid being identified by making anonymous payments in this method.

Although you can’t wipe your PayPal history, you can delete your account and achieve the same result. You could archive PayPal transactions in the past, but that didn’t make them truly disappear. For more stories, go to Business Insider’s homepage.

Log in to your account and go to the top menu and select “Activity.” You’ll be presented with a list of transactions that you can filter by date or type if necessary. You’ll see a “Cancel” link next to the transaction if it’s possible to cancel it. Simply click the link and, in the confirmation window, select “Cancel Payment.”
