First name last name your Febuary paypal statement is ready. WHY are we making it easier for hackers. They hacked into your email now they know your first name and last name and that you have paypal account. My point is your first name and last name should not be on it. Your email address and that you have a statement ready is enough!

Hi jojobe71 - 

 

Welcome to the Community, and we appreciate your feedback regarding our emails! 

 

While we can understand where you're coming from with this suggestion, part of how PayPal ensures that our emails are legitimate is the fact that we'll only address you by your name as it appears on your PayPal account. Fraudsters tend to use email addresses to address people as they wouldn't have access to your full name. So this is actually one of the ways that we try and ensure that customers know if an email comes from us.
