Ah, yeah, he is trying to scam you. A paper wallet export contains both your public and your private key.

Question, what would he need if he wasn't trying to scam me. Or is the "cold wallet" just a distraction and he is definitely trying to scam me. Just want to be more knowledgeable for the future.
What payment method or digital goods are you dealing with? And is he the buyer(his BTC, your something) or the seller(your BTC , his something)?

Edit: If he is the one sending you the BTC , only thing he'd need is your Bitcoin address. Which, as Mitch said, starts with a 1 or 3

He is buying goods from me. Thanks for the responses guys. Love how fast and kind the community seems to be. Will watch out for theses scams in the future. Definitely expect me to be back in the future.

Uuuuh, it sounds strange. Why do they want your paper wallet? Could you copy and paste the message they sent you?

"I need the paper wallet to send the bitcoin cause my btc is in the cold wallet. You'll find paper wallet on blockchain. Import/export .And click on button paper wallet"

That's all he said.

If someone asks me they need my paper wallet in blockchain because his BTC is in a cold wallet, is this a scam or do I need to know something before I go in.
