Looks like an easy fold to me. At the micros fish aren't shoving their stack in with the Ts here. The hand example below reminds me of this a little bit, expecting to see As most of the time.

hand.

Do like the flop and turn bet to get value from worse, folding the turn.

I wouldn't have bet the flop. AQ has reasonable SD value and we're rarely getting better to fold. I think the turn bet is fine but it's gross when he clicks it back as we're so likely to be dead and facing a river bomb.

I'd have called the turn and just hoped he somehow didn't fire the last shell but that's not much of a plan. The problem here is the bloated pot we created when we could have just kept things under control more with a marginal holding.
