Navy federal bank account transfer from another bank?

Someone owes me money and wants to transfer from there account to mine. Can I just give them my access number and it be safe or is that even possible? They have a different bank and I don't really want to give my account number. Would they need the routeing number to?

Please only answer if you know how navy federal and access numbers work. Thanks :)

Update:

Do you have navy federal? I know if they had navy federal then I could just give my access number and it would be safe.

    You have to give both the transit routing number and your account number to receive a wire transfer or get an ACH credit. (Automated Clearinghouse.)

    If you don't trust this person, don't give it out and tell them to pay you by check.

    There is nothing you can do. Your father is your legal guardian until you are 18 and can open your own account. Actually there is something you can do for the future.... Find another adult that you can trust and ask them to open you a new checking account. It can be anybody willing to take the risk of co-signing a checking account. This way your father has no access to this account and you can start putting your money into the new account. You can report this problem to child protective services and ask to have a guardian appointed by the family court so that your father can no longer take your money. Whether the court can get your money back... I could not say... but call social services or whatever authority deals with family matters and minors.

    Then tell "someone" to send you a cashier's check or postal money order. Never give out account information to people you don't trust.
