weird message activity

So I'm trying to purchase from a seller and he messages me from a different name. He then emails me from a very similar name that is on the Escrow list and I cant confirm the email as its hidden. They then switches emails after they realized that I thought i was talking to the escrow person. Now the email is random letters but user name is correct. So i sent an PM to the Escrow person it looked like he was to escrow the transition (the same person they recommended to escrow it). I get a message back with the fees of the escrow and address to send the BTC to with a quote of what i sent but the person I received the message from was my own account. This would be my first purchase from the site and I'm just a little nervous about sending $4200 in BTC to an address received from myself after all this. I thought about maybe the guy goofed and used the wrong email the first time and has multiple accounts and doesn't want them affiliated together but then why the self received message? Any thoughts or is this normal activity?
