This might sound like a strange question, but I want to remain anonymous when I receive payment for something I'm selling on line. What's the best way of me remaining anonymous? It's nothing dodgy by the way.:)

Thanks.

    I'm confused. You want someone to pay a mystery person with no details?? If I was paying someone i'd want to know who I was paying. Why would you need to be anonymous? :confused: Where are you planning on selling things?

    Apologies for being suspicious but it just sounds a bit odd :o

    Squirrel can you give any more information? What about Paypal? I know little about it but generally all you know about the other person is their email address?

    from looking at squirrels other posts it seems

    he/she is selling an item....and potential buyer is someone they know.

    but buyer does not realise that they know the seller, and seller doesnt want them to find out.

    if they pay by Paypal...they will see the sellers name, identified by their email addy.

    Exactly! And I must to add that it's pure coincidence that it's someone I know.
