Account paybymail and amazon egift. Do not transmit address or email to seller of xmr as its not expected/required.

[charcharchar]

Suggestion to not transmit mailing address(pay by mail) or email address(amazon egift) to the seller of xmr when someone is buying monero.
xmr Seller does not need to know the persons mailing address or email address for these payment methods when buying.
This has caused questions / confusions in public chat channels or users think this is actually required and not proceed with using haveno.

If anyone knows of other payment methods that have similar issue, please list in this issue.

I don't understand the point in case of CBM. The person's mailing address (return address) is also on the package.

[charcharchar]

I think with CBM a lot of buyers do not put their real return address on the package or leave it blank.
So what tends to happen is buyers create an account for buying only and a separate account for selling that has real mailing address for the buyer to send the cash to. As mentioned the reason for this suggestion is that it has confused users and may lose a potential user if they think its required to provide personal info when not really required. Have seen people question why they need to provide a physical address or email if they are only buying monero and do not expect to receive cash or egift to their physical/email address. Maybe this could be solved easier by a comment on account creation page by simply mentioning buyer only accounts do not need to provide these details?

with amazon egift, the email for the person giving the gift is not shared with the recipient of the egift, so its not like its needed for verification

So that users are not further confused
First draft of Haveno reto trading rules:¹

Pay_By_Mail:
Address fields should be the name the seller or postal service to return the package to in case of any issues.

Generally:
Buyer takes all post and delivery related risks (lost, returned, stolen, damaged, ...)
Buyer can also provide Santa's address, but he must remember that it is his own risk!

Amazon_eGift_card:
You can fill in an email address or a phone number:

• Which one you pick (email address or phone number) only affects how the Monero seller will receive the eGift Card (i.e., via email or text message)
• The phone number or email address provided here does not need to be linked to your Amazon account. Once the Monero seller has received the eGift Card, they can add it to any Amazon account.

I always find it funny, people pay with Revolut, Zelle, Wise etc. and FED gets all their personal data.
Revolut, Wise and SEPA from abroad transmit the buyer address data to the seller. At least to my bank. ;-)
But people are afraid of a trader from the Monero community who buys XMR or sells it to someone.

¹Haveno trading protocol and rules have been developed over 8 years in the Bisq community (Keybase, Chat, Github, Forum, WiKi, etc.) It is intended to protect sellers as much as possible from fraud.
