If someone with a (user)bot wants to send you a message, they can do that via the userID only. But only if they have "seen" you. Seeing you is considering their client to receive a message from you, be it in a private message or group.

Bots can only send you a message if you have started it in a private chat, otherwise they can only send you a message in a group they share with you.

So there is no real risk of people knowing your ID.
