You may simply send and receive money to anyone with a smartphone using the Google Pay app. Enter the appropriate amount and tap “Pay” to make a payment. Even if the receiver is not using Google Pay, this application will still function without charging a fee. Keep in mind that denying someone access to Google Pay also denies them access to Google Photos and Hangouts.
However, there are occasions when an unknown sends you a Google Pay request, which is entirely possible as long as the sender has your Google Pay registered contact number, which they can use to locate you on the application. No one on this platform wants to interact with such uninvited messages or requests, so the best line of action is to report or block the offending users. The ways to report or block someone on Google Pay are shown below.
