Mixing PayPal with BTC is bad idea. The infamous PayPal charge back will be the most risky issue. You should seriously consider cash only deal. Did you check out: https://localbitcoins.com/ (https://localbitcoins.com/)?

From personal experience, Paypal can be an issue.  Is there any easy method out there?

I sent a PP payment for all 6.9 BTC. Giving him 15 minutes to send over the BTC. Otherwise definitely a scammer. Will post back here.

Sent as gift? And more details please, like the PayPal address you sent to?

Can you get your money back?

I sent as a purchase to the following address, which seems to not match previous names/emails the seller has posted. And the name seems fake too.

Seller's Name: Jimmie Rustled
Seller's Email: jimmies.ruslted@mail.com

I'm disputing the purchase.

What part of "Don't use Paypal" don't people get?

Call Paypal *immediately* and tell them he was selling bitcoins to you and instructed you to send the payment as a gift.

Also, thanks a lot guys. We really needed to keep reassuring scammers that there were plenty of fresh fish here. Wouldn't want them to stop trying now would we!

@Moderators: A warning in -every- thread at the top of -every- screen, yes?

Thanks guys, I am aware of the risk. I put it on a credit card + PayPal so I'm going with PayPal dispute first and credit card chargeback next.

Using pay pal is perfectly fine just have some standards. For instance because he is basically a no one, he should go first in the trade. Only trusted members for pay pal and you'll be fine. Paypal does not like digital goods in general not just bitcoins.
