How to notice same side players on the zone chat window in the PVP area?

Some people keep saying "LFG" or "any group?" kind of word on the zone chat of PVP area.
But, there're no alliance flag sigh on the zone chat. How to find same side players on the chat?

There's no other side chats in yours when in pvp zone.

In PVP zones the chat is your alliance only, so everyone is on your side. Hope this helps.

I was whispered by someone from a different alliance once after they heard me speak in Cyrodiil zone chat.

I was doing an endeavor to do a certain amount of quests for an NPC and there was an enemy waiting at the quest giver who kept killing me when I tried to turn in the quest. I said in zone chat that an enemy was doing this and a player whispered me that maybe I should come back later. I said that this was my last turn in and I just wanted to get this done and they replied that they would let me turn it in. That is when I realized that the name was the same. This player bowed as I came to turn in and let me complete my quest.

So someone from a different alliance definitely saw what I was saying in zone.

Supposedly sometimes people have alt accounts in opposing alliance to see zone chat, but you will only see zone chat for the alliance you're in.

This player whispered me on the character that was killing me. Is that something that is allowed while in Cyrodiil?

If they had an alt account listening to zone chat wouldn't they have replied to me on the character that saw my chat?

Eh, it's far more likely that they independently decided to whisper you after having killed you a few times than they saw opposing faction zone chat.

You are describing a coincidence not a game bug.

They likely said that since they noticed they were killing the same player over and over again. Just as I have had hate whispers from someone I had just killed it makes sense someone would be kind and offer a friendly whisper in the situation you suggest.

The only way they could have seen a different alliances zone chat would have been by watching a player's stream or if they had an alt account active with your alliance in that campaign. They could not have seen it from their game's chat.

I don't spend a lot of time in Cyrodiil and after this experience I just thought that this was how things were there.

But somehow this player knew exactly what I had said in zone chat and was nice and let me turn in my quest.

None of that makes it sounds like they saw your alliance's zone chat necessarily, just that they could tell you were determined to do your quest. Idk what they expected, camping a quest turn-in lol

According people's opinion, we can't see other team conversation on the zone chat.
And, can't do "eavesdropping" also. Am I right?

That's correct, although as Amottica says there are ways to get around that.

Someone from a different alliance was told or given a screenshot of what you said, but they have to be on your alliance to see zone chat. Most likely an ally asked the person killing you to let you live after you complained in zone chat.

That's possible. All I know is he knew exactly what I called him but was a nice guy and let me turn it in anyway.
