I'm looking for some guidance on how to uncover a hidden email address linked to an old Pinterest account. I signed up when I was around 14-15 and can't remember which random email I used. Pinterest requires that I provide the email to delete that account, but it isn't any of the ones I currently use. I've been trying to get this embarrassing account deleted for years because searching my name online brings it up as one of the first results. When I use the Forgot Password function, I can see part of the email address in the screenshot I've shared in the comments. Is there a way to fully reveal this email so I can finally get rid of the account?

If you're an email hoarder, try searching for past emails from Yahoo or similar services from your various accounts. Beyond that, it seems you're at the mercy of Pinterest's support, as there aren't any reliable methods for uncovering hidden email addresses without access.
Got it, I didn't realize there were so many rules about this stuff here. Thanks for the tips!
