@kcppdevelopers I'm actually a little curious about this method of resolving the issue. By redirecting everything to a 404, Google index spiders would end up seeing a bunch of 404 Not Found pages on your site which would not look good in Google Webmaster Tools.

Is there some other way to resolve this? I was thinking it would be something simple like adding or adjusting one of the attributes included with register_post_type()..?? Isn't there some simple way to tell WP not to allow public access or indexing of a particular post type?

@angelleye we have already added 'public' => false, parameter when we register register custom post type. now PayPal IPN data is private data and google will not index that post data.
