Hi, I recieved an e-mail from a guy named Anderson, from a mail: mobilez_phones@yahoo.com. He sells me a T630 at $320 USD by a Western Union payment (I deposit money in an account, he brings the phone to my door, then I give him the details of the account I deposited the money and then he gets the money) and with the shipping included and the product will arrive to my door.
Anyone know the name or e-mail of this guy?
Has anyone bought from him before?
Should I trust him?

He has no site, he told me.
And I told him that I had friends who were scammed on buying stuff in the internet, and told me that I could pay by western union, I would have to deposit the money in an account with a password, and after I got the phone, I would now then give him the details of the account.

i'm a regular seller on ebay and i wouldnt suggest you use wetern union as you dont get any fraud protection. best ones ive found are paypal and nochex as they offer protection.
make sure you dont buy an item off of ebay where the seller has said you can have the item cheaper it you dont go through ebays channels. this also creates a problem for you as again you are not protected.

If he's bringing the phoen to your door, why can't you just give him cash there and then?

@Jezzaj
Exactly you got the point. He's gonna get the phone shipped to my door by UPS, not by him personally.

It does seem rather suspect, but i suppose if he knows nothing about the account you deposit the money it kinda seems alright.
I still don't trust anyone who uses a hotmail account

hotmail itself does not say anything aboiut credibility of a user 
bit of a sad statement that
Then, back to the issue at hand: did he respond to a question from you somewhere stating that you were looking for a phone? Or is this your classic Í noticed that you are bidding on auction this or that, I can sell this item to you directly if only you pay me by money order and DO NOT tell anybody' sort of situation?
If it's the latter, do not bite!! This guy is out to scam you.

Yeah he replied to a question I made to him. Because I haven't made any bids.
