Maybe this is just trying to scam someone and ask for send first but the fact he is not h9olding 5btc no proof of address..
Op if you are real selling bitcoin better to share your address with 5 btc and sign message.. to know if its real or not.. many new comers here are doing it here the same as you repeatedly ever week or every month..

But its Not a Myth, PayPal is covering you when somebody is trying to scam you, so i have Chosen this one for the Safety of Both

The solution is not so hard to figure out:

Use escrow!

You send the specified amount of bitcoins to the escrow, the escrow gives the go ahead for the PayPal handler to send the payment, you confirm the payment was made and the escrow releases the funds to the exchanger who originally had PayPal. Done! Easy peasy, no need to fuss about who goes first.

The above method doesn't cover PayPal chargebacks, in case anyone didn't know. Applicable in this case because I'm assuming the OP is only trading with people who he'd trust.

Its a well known scam and bitcoin is not covered under paypal Terms and conditions.

You come across as suspicious, I have temp red flagged you until you confirm you are using escrow and not asking for people to send first

Also what is your bitcoin address holding 5.13BTC so it can be verified (bet you wont even do this Wink )

Maybe a good idea to clarify if you use Escrow and sign a message from the address holding the coins to prove you own them.

I sell 5,13 BTC for a good Exchange!

I am accepting payments via PayPal, because its the safest way to trade!

Feel Free to Message me, to Talk about the Price and Stuff!


The highlighted line worries me, makes it sound like the usual paypal "you send first because paypal covers you" scam.  Paypal is not safe for either party.
