When you request payment , buyer have to include his address or it doesnt mind?

If he has a confirmed address then you'll see it once he pays the request.
I will be updating the guide soon since PayPal now provides purchase protection for buyers on intangible or virtual items and services. That means sellers are now required to provide "compelling" evidence showing that the service / virtual item was delivered.
So,today i wont one more dispute,evidences i gave to paypal were :
-Skype chat with my customer (screenshoots)
-Screenshoots of ingame trade , or if u did powerleveling screenshoots of char on certain lvl
I called paypal aswell,and told them things i did and explained them what i did and how we did it.
what if the buyer bought multiple services i had not known about this scam till recently. he sent the money as gift. he has bought services from me atleast 8 times it's just like you said i thought sending as gift would be better. i have records of the guy receiving the service. i'm just a little scared he might just chargeback out of the blue. i'm going to start doing invoices now, but im still courious
PayPal never provided any seller protection to payments received as friends & family / gift. But they will try to help you out as much as possible if you've been dealing with PayPal for 7+ years and have a huge amount of transactions (that is a fact).
so now i have to wait and hope the guy is not a scammer ? how long does he have to chargeback payments. he has done a total of 13 payments
Please read the update before jumping to conclusions. That was indeed true prior to their purchase protection changes.
The reason to send money requests right now is to get some form of seller protection. Previously, people would ask the buyer to send them the money as friends & family or gift (thinking they are protected against chargebacks) which provides no protection to the buyer at all.
*Update: PayPal purchase protection changes
PayPal now provides purchase protection for buyers on intangible or virtual items and services. This means that sellers are now required to provide "compelling" evidence showing that the service or virtual item was delivered. If you do not provide any proof then PayPal will almost always rule the case in the buyer's favor.
Calling PayPal and explaining what happened and how the trade happened still helps. However, with PayPal's policy changes, you will still be required to provide proof showing that the buyer did in fact receive the service or virtual item was delivered such as:
1) Skype chat logs
2) In-game screenshots of the trade
3) Screenshots of the character you've boosted
I don't mean to break down this nice sticky post you have trying to help other sellers, like you and I, but sadly I called multiple different PayPal representatives and they all gave me the same answer. Sending money requests doesn't guarantee anything. My apologies for "jumping to conclusions", was merely trying to provide everyone the facts.
I read through your entire post, so please don't belittle a simple reply that was sent with the purest of intentions.
I, like any other seller, thank you for your work here.

That being said, you should be able to recall your account in case the buyer files a chargeback on the payment.
