That is an obvious scam. You pay 1 btc for nothing. You won't get anything.

I'm not going to try, even if I thought the database would be worth 1 BTC for me or my business plans, it's very much against my principles - but still, even spammers may be honest sometimes, there is certainly a non-zero probability that I'd get the dump by paying for it, I even think it's likely. There are systems for escrow also (i.e. copay wallet).

I find it reasonable to believe the spammer actually has the dumps, and I see no reasons not to ship the "goods" after payment.
