I've just received this pm from a newbie. I have no intention of selling my account, and I'm not sure if I should report the user. What is the current attitude towards selling accounts? especially if the account is for a merit source. I've given him a negative trust entry. Should I do anything else?
Forum allows it but account sale is discouraged as the new owners can use bought accounts for launching scam projects or send scam offers to forum community members.

You already tagged the account and the remaining thing you can do is reporting it to forum moderator. You are hesitating to do report, perhaps it is a newbie account, but why don't report it?

Moderator will handle your report and ban or nuke that newbie account.

18. Having multiple accounts and account sales are allowed, but account sales are discouraged.
