Well still they can simply open a dispute claiming unauthorized trade. I prefer you to trade with trusted people or use bitcoin.
Hey guys, I am about to sell my steam to someone and the payment method is paypal.
So, can you please tell me how to avoid paypal 'scam', aka chargebacks.
Someone told me that you can avoid being scammed if the buyer uses the 'send to a family member' option.
Don't have an alt, and I will see if he can get btc somehow.
Don't try to exchange $500+ from an exchanger, chances of them being legit are so low, simply ask him to provide his ID and his face and put a picture on the note and say it was for digital goods.
ID should match account on Paypal so they know it's not "unauthorized."
I wouldn't recommend doing a large deal on digital items, since Paypal usually never has Seller Protection
Basically anyone can chargeback on paypal by calling paypal and say they didn't send the money and that someone else did it. This also works for f&f payments.
Safest way is to use bitcoin or get them to send a giftcard code (careful if they send a non-working one)
Thank you guys for the fast replies, I will see if this person can get btc somehow.
Sure, but steam account can be easily recovered using your first email. So the buyer has to be cautious too.

Or tell him to open dispute on Paypal and close it afterwards. He cannot open another dispute in the future.
I have a question, will this person be able to refund his money after 15 days?
