I think OP just wants the money from seller protection and not from hacked person. Assuming just going to send an inexpensive product not the real sold item....
Apart from it being risky to your account if paypal think you have been shady, it may not go your way anyway and you are out whatever you ship and the postage.
Also, why cause the hacked person worry or hassle?
I do not understand how paypal told you it is hacked and would still tell you to ship?

Hold the money for at least a week. Normally if the PayPal account got hacked, the account owner will reserve the money very soon, especially with the high amount of money. After a week, if no charge back, you can ship it to him but make sure that you set up the correct protection plan for yourself. Another way is you can request that user information from eBay, and call the account owner to check if they purchased the item or not.

Story is for me, not SUGGESTING but.. I purchased high end item from China, and I received a pencil in the mail. Tracking showed up delivered and signed for. Best advise all money is not good money, although you've made a good fair profit, might be best to just walk away from it. Have some good Karma going for yourself. So sit twiddle your thumbs and thoughts because even if YOU suspect an unsavory buyer, more then likely will cause more issues to come. Your instinct is telling you something aint right so might be best to treat it as that.

I got an offer like this on a 'for sale' ad once. Seemed such a nice chap, turns out he was a tribal prince from Nigeria. |

I think you missed the point guys...I am "pretty sure" he's a scammer, but paypal doesn't. But if it's seller protection eligible it doesn't matter if scammer because it's paypal loss not mines.
and these types of unauthorized transaction chargebacks doesn't count against you the seller at all (after all, we can't pick our buyers, can we?). but if i refund him it'll count as a defect (small, but nonetheless a defect).
He asked invoice and I sent him invoice with $100 shipping and he complained "says outside USA $30 in your listing, blah blah, change it so i can pay" After changing, he paid. Why would scammer complain $70 if it's not his money?
BUT...I asked buyer how he is buying from Pakistan and he says he's buying more than 10 years no problem. But, when I asked other sellers that left him feedback if it was problem shipping to him in Pakistan and they all said they mailed to him in the UK.
Paypal didn't tell me ip addresses but said he didnt use the Pakistan address before and limited his account for more info. But I see on ebay he's buying 20 things every month, so if it is hacked...the original buyer should notice right away...it's not an old inactive account.
nonetheless, it is seller protection eligible. if paypal says safe to ship, it's safe to ship, they cant tell you a week later it's not eligible. Some times they send follow up emails "it was an unauthorized transaction, if you shipped out provide tracking we have you covered, if you haven't shipped out, than please dont". I say F paypal...wait 3 days....ship out and give tracking and get paid by seller protection |

I would love to know what you think seller protection is, as I can assure you it is not a 100% cast iron guarantee you will win a case.

When in doubt, don't ship out - but in the end it's your choice OP - you have got a lot of views already. Decide and move on.

theres so many flaws in the OPs posts, first PAYPAL TELL him straight out the account is hacked - but you can ship the item.
That alone is lies - if paypal KNOW for sure an account is hacked its got more limitations than you can imagine, they arent going to lose 800$ for no one.
And what if he is buying 20 things from ebay a month, how do you know they arent paying it buy CC or loging into a diff PP to pay. Youve already made your mind up anyway and its already in the post no doubt. Pointless thread.
