I'm just wondering, is it 20,000 BTC, or $20,000 worth of BTC? Because if it's actually 20,000 BTC, that's over $1.5 billion, which would make it obviously a scam. Anything involving that huge amount of money and offering deals like that is extremely risky, no matter how trusted the user seems to be on the forum.

It doesn't matter the amount the person is asking for. For the fact that the user has been dormant after a year and suddenly comes back and the first order of business is seek for the exchange of money. Why will I want to do business with such a person in the first place that has a zero rep? So what if it turns out to be a scammer, then who will I hold responsible for such a foolish act if not myself.
Things like this gets me wondering about the audacity of the person. Like who will be so foolish enough as to trade with you?

I think the account status doesn’t matter much, it’s the nature of the transaction that’s important. Even if an account has been dormant, as long as the transaction favors both parties (for example, if the dormant user is willing to use a trusted escrow), then both sides should be safe, and the account itself isn’t a major concern.

However, based on what I’ve read in the terms, there’s a huge risk here since they didn’t use an escrow…
