Incorrect email address shown from the sender when receiving money

Just curious as to why when my neighbor sends payment the incorrect email address shows up for them? I noticed it when I looked at the details of the transaction. I sent my neighbor a message as a heads up in case they didn't know that their email was listed incorrectly. They checked their account and sent me a screenshot of it and it was correct on their end. Any idea how this could happen?
