Its against ToS to submit things off Upwork before you have a contract on Upwork.
This scammer is trying to steal your information which they would later use to dcam you further. If you take a step back and think about it for a sceond, why would a potential client message you on Upwork - to message you on telegram - to ask you for 'contact details' while you were in contact the whole time. it does not make sense yea?
What scammers do is pressurize you into making quick decisions so that they can exploit you.
Read the following article on some of the different techniques that they use and read on the Upwork terms of Service (ToS) to further undestand how to get yourself out of situations like these:
