Hello @zW_13,
Welcome to our community forum and thank you for your post!
I understand that you want to cancel payment requests in your account. Here’s how to cancel a money request or invoice:
Log in to your PayPal account.
Click Activity at the top of the page.
Click Details next to the invoice you want to review.
Click Cancel invoice and follow the instructions.
You can find more details on cancelling the invoice here.
I hope this helps!

Does not help if you get multiple requests from randomly generated e-mail addresses.
Which I suddenly got after 16 years of tranquility and correct payments.
I can not spend time tracking and cancelling this.
Trying to find a way to disable payment requests entirely.
If no solution is possible within Paypal, I will cancel my account. There are other ways.

Some people claim this can be done via the App. That option does not seem to be available in the Android app.
