Buyer asking for address and phone number on invoice

I recently had a buyer ask for my address and phone number on an invoice.  I have been using paypal for quite some time and have never had this request before.  I was wondering if providing this information can pose a security risk to my account.

 

Thank you!

To be clear - as you are the seller, we're assuming you sent the invoice to the buyer - if so, the buyer should have all the info he or she needs.  No need to share any personal info assuming you have a Business Account.

Yes I am the seller. It is a personal account, not a business account. So other than my name and PayPal email no other information of mine was attached to the invoice.
