Are you sure it's a scam? Mebbe somebody really wants help getting some parts?

I do agree with the "weird" part.

I suppose that once you give him a paypal address, that's where the trouble begins?

I sure ain't trusting of stuff like that, but this one looks like maybe he wants some parts. I'd still ignore it. I'd never recommend anyone take a risk like that.
