Not sure how the user you posted is related to the paxful scandal, but he's obviously scammer claiming to sell a verified account, Newbie with no reputation whose account was just made to make the sale. Also, all his advertising threads are locked which is a very big red flag.
The Best thing to such chaps is to paint them Red and report their post. I have reported some of his posts.

As for Paxful, they have been allover the news lately because of the ongoing scandals. Avoid them at all costs

As already said, I think local bitcoins is a much better platform than the less famous paxful. I have used it for almost 2 years now with not a single issue with my ID not yet even verified since am not a merchant.
