Why were you looking to buy 5 yesterday and sell 7 today -

Sounds like a scammer to me, the old "you send paypal first because its reversible" you then clear out the funds from the dodgy paypal account and disappear.

Posting your wallet address and a signed message from that address would be a good start to prove you actually hold 7 BTC

As he is online on the forum since he made this thread
And he didn't reply on my PM I have sent to him
I think he is just still waiting for his newbie victim !!

Ditch account, reset and try again  ::)

searching for his registered email "zakpedley123@hotmail.co.uk" only comes up with the below search result -

Mentions the word "crime" so assume he's a serial scammer.
