PayPal question!

I'm not sure where to put this so sorry if it's the wrong place.

I just realised that when I send money to people, my address is visible! How do I hide it?

Thanks, I figured it out 5 mins ago. -_____- I hate myself for not doing this sonner. But what are the chances of people stalking me anyway? XD

Yeah, it's not really a big deal to me... as you can see.

Meh, no worse than someone whoising your domain name and having it exposed!

In Removed's case, we can't stalk him.. he has a PO box..

I'm also lucky, there's no road names here.. -- all my mail goes to the post office, there's a massive shortage on PO boxes.

Sure you can! Here's the post office where this box is located:
12655 Whittington Dr, Houston, TX - Google Maps

I try to check the box at least once per week. I drive a white Ford, and I usually go to the post office early in the morning. If you decide to camp out and stalk me, be sure to say hi. We can do lunch or something.

Phonebook would do just as good a whois really..

I'm not worried about it. Stalkers aren't all bad.

But I'd say 90% of my clients opt for me to enter my info rather than their own. I never bought into the "private registration" that Godaddy offers.

You can't protect these on .uk's and .eu's I believe and I have a few :-(

Also in the UK, PO Box's can be tracked to the delivery address via our post office. I used to have one a couple of years ago.
