Why would you possibly think it is a good idea to send first to an account that was literally created today?

To be honest, I highly suspected that he was going to scam me.  I was just hoping I was wrong.  The only reason why I was selling the account in the first place is because I am done with bitcointalk.  I'm tired of keeping up with signature campaigns and just want to be done.  I was hoping for one quick last transaction, and I was going to be done.
