Very good that you have not sent him the money first, he refuse to use escrow so it's 100% a scam because even  he can sign a message that is no guarantee that you will get your money later so only deal via escrow and make sure it's a real one and not a fake or impersonator!

This user recently woke up from a long period of inactivity.

I need not say anything else. Good job OP for not falling for these simple tricks. Avoid trading with users without escrow who:
1) Woke up recently.
2) Changed their passwords/emails recently.
3) Do not have a strong and verifiable history of trading.
All of these can be seen via the trust page and should serve as a basis for evaluation before trading. Anyhow, tagged.
