Very strange requests and buyer user reliability? | Questions and answers among users

Hello everyone, a user made me a strange offer (which lasts 24h). First of all, I wanted to know if I accept the offer, is he OBLIGED then to make the purchase? And obviously, being on eBay, am I 100% protected? Second thing (super suspicious!!) he writes to me "I want this item shipped to my cousin in Italy as a surprise birthday gift and I will send you an additional payment of €200 to help me buy a gift card and wrap it together with the item. I can do €30 more for the extra service. Is that okay?" Obviously it smells from a mile away, but my doubt is that if he had made me this offer in private I would have already closed the communication BUT he made me a direct eBay offer and, moreover, if I go to his profile it has existed for many years (he has only bought). Any advice?Thanks a lot to anyone who replies.
