I recently received an email from blservice@bricklink.com regarding best practices
to avoid phishing scams via email and to be proactive with account security.
In said email, one suggestion was to hide the BL and PayPal emails associated
with one's store. I'm unable to find a toggle to hide my email on the
site, so I'm inquiring on how I can do so.

Thanks in advance.

I don't think it is visible unless someone places an order. I do see a number
of stores that list their email or paypal address in their store terms though.
I think this is what the email was referring to.
