I tried to buy 1 BTC for PP from Biglab 2 days ago. He wanted me to send him the PayPal as a gift. I found out his PP acct wasn't verified, and told him I could only send it as "paying for goods and services". He agreed.

When I tried to send him the money, I got this Paypal error "We're sorry, but we can't send your payment right now.". He suggested I try a different browser. I did that but kept getting the same error. He then provided a different email address to try, which also was not Paypal verified.

At that point I didn't trust the whole thing any more and backed out, besides I had an event to go to and ran out of time.
After reading this, I am glad I backed out.

The first email address he gave me is the same as the one mentioned in this tread.
