I think you'd have a hard time opening a bank account in a name other than your own, unless it was a business account. Even then, you need to provide documentation that the business is legitimate and that it belongs to you.Isn't e-transfer connected to your bank?
Unless you can open an account at the bank with fake name but maintain monetary abidance I don't see a problem, and don't use your real name on the email.
Or buy a gift visa/mastercard and use that.
No. You would have to find a different alternative.Let's say I want to send an e-transfer to a company
Is there a way of blocking my name out
You don't have to have your name You can have a business name I'm other things I believe. They're also legal ways to use a fake name. Music stars do it all the time.Isn't e-transfer connected to your bank?

Electronic transfer? Big Brother is always watching now...Let's say I want to send an e-transfer to a company

I think that only applies to amounts over $10K, so unless you're dealing with an incredible SP, you should be good.Definitely not.
For anti-money-laundering reasons, banks must show the source and destination of all transfers.
I've paid a deposit to an SP by buying an Amazon gift card with cash, taking a picture of the back and texting the picture to her.
I can see banks being taken to task if they are not following the procedures established between the banks. But that doesn't equate to the notion that every electronic transfer, regardless of the amount, is reported to the government. That would be hundreds of thousands of transactions, that's why they set the $10K threshold.Not really, if the source and beneficiary are not explicitly identified in the transfer it is offside. I worked for a bank that got in trouble for not including such identity details in small dollar amount transfers. Some smaller institutions did this to save time and then got flagged up by the receiving institution for not including the details.
