That depends on many factors all listed in Paypals buyer protection policy for you to read so you can risk assess your transactions.
Legal (bottom right of Paypals pages) > user agreement > buyer protection.

Just personally speaking I wouldn't send any money to some stranger direct without any further exchange... Perhaps if the sale were conducted through a venue such as Facebook or Ebay then you'd have some protection but just sending your money outright?

I wouldn't do it.

Even a website, if it's not a place you've heard of before, beware.
