PayPal email

Is it safe to share our PayPal email with unknown people. One of the user here has asked me my Paypla email because he wants to refer to for some well paying site. I asked for more details but he did not share any. Is it safe if I share mr PayPal email with him?

No. I advise you not to. I heard from one user here that another user asks for her PayPal account for transfer of funds. This user therefore declined the request.

@amitkokiladitya at times like this, even people who we think are already truthful and trustworthy to us, they turn the other way around especially if it pertains to borrowing/lending money.

I wouldn't share that with him, keep those things to yourself, you just can't trust people anymore especially if you don't know them and they are asking personal info like that.

as far as he doesnt know your meails password and your email password, it is not big problem. i have shared my paypal email with people who i dont really know. but for prevention, dont share

If he cannot share those details with you then you probably shouldn't share that email address with him.

I don't think it is a good idea. He probably has some scam scheme in mind. Stay away from that person.

@amitkokiladitya I know you are a smart woman and won't give personal details to strangers. People often want an American email, zip code, phone number, etc. so they can qualify for something they are not eligible for. If caught, it could come back on you for sharing your information.

you don't have to do it unless it is necessary or unless if he or she will be sending you some money. If he is gonna recommend some well paying site he shouldn't ask for your paypal but rather give you the site straight to the point.

I will not share such personal details without knowing the person. He can share the details without knowing your personal details. It's better to stay away from these fishy situations.

A big no. Don't share your Paypal with anyone. Unless he/she's your employer online.
