I need to block someone who is not a friend from asking me for money frequently. How do I do that?

Hi @katfivecents,
Thank you for your post and for being part of the PayPal Community!
I'm sorry to hear that you are receiving unwanted payment requests. I am not certain that there is a way to block payment requests if the person already knows your email address or phone number, however, you may want to try these steps.
I hope this works and solves your problem!
Olivia

Unfortunately the steps on PayPal only work for someone who is in your contact list.
