I strongly discourage anyone from falling for this. Just think about it: if he, the rightful owner of the account (or so he claims), can't withdraw
his own money how you, the fake owner who obtained the account illegally, possibly could? There is nothing you can do that he couldn't do himself.
Here is the official PayPal information regarding PayPal accounts in Egypt and it clearly states that an account holder
can withdraw money either to a Visa card issued in Egypt or a bank account in the U.S.:
https://www.paypal.com/eg/webapps/mpp/setup-to-receive-withdraw. Now if he claims he can't withdraw to his Visa card issued in Egypt whom are you going to believe? An anonymous person or PayPal?
Furthermore, even this suspicious text with laughably incorrect grammar and capitalization (allegedly from some PayPal "supporter", or so you are led to believe) states again that he in fact
can withdraw money to his Visa XXX16:

If you buy this account from him it will be against the PayPal terms, you can't rename it so it will still be in his name and if you try to link it with your bank account (which is in your name) and withdraw into it you will be committing a felony according to the U.S. Penal Code.
Let alone the fact that once you log into this account from a totally different IP address from a different country and possibly even a wholly different continent only hours after him the account may get locked just because of that as it's physically impossible that you could be the account owner.
It just makes you wonder why would anyone open a PayPal account he can't withdraw money from and then receive some money into it..
