Venmo spam?

[HiggyBaby 2563]

Over the last couple weeks I’ve been inundated with spam like this. There a setting I missed or wtf? You can decline them easily enough I guess but the annoyance level is high.

I hve never received anything like that in my Venmo.

 

PS: In comparing Venmo to Zelle, Z is the clear winner & V sucks sooner ass.

Even that is tedious. It takes you over to PayPal which makes the process harder than it should. I ended up just changing my username, see if that works for now .

Venmo don't give a shit. My Venmo email address is my first initial followed by my full last name @ domain. I get EM notifications of payments, requests etc for an email that is my first initial dot full last name @ domain. I've reported to Venmo that this isn't me on numerous occasions and they can't -- or won't -- do anything about it. (Maybe it's more of an EM/provider issue than Venmo -- I dunno.)
