Does PayPal allow others to see my address or phone number?

[Dorito]

Alright, I know PayPal let's people who send you money see your name, obviously.

But do they let people who send you money to see your address, phone number or any bank account information?

Thanks.

They can see your address, I don't think they can see your phone number unless you provide one along with your shipping info.

They can only see the address you nominate.
All of my PayPal transactions go to my local post office to be held for me.


But if you're wanting to get at people's info through paypal, I recommend you go check out hackforums.net

I've developed lots of back end security systems with PayPal and if you really want to know the type of info I have access to then view the link below.

I can get this info once you purchase an item from me (Or any other site who integrates there sites with paypal).

As developers we can pretty much get any info about you from PayPal other then very secured info like bank info.

use a p.o. box as your address on paypal so your residential address stays private
