There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

There's an escrow service that you could consider trying:
 - http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#bitcoin-escrow

You agree to which person you both trust for escrow (check ratings on the #bitcoin-otc Web of Trust (WoT).  The seller sends the bitcoins to the escrow, you send Western Union, and the seller releases the BTCs to you.

If the seller doesn't agree to this, then chances are greater that it was a scam attempt.

Yes, you definitely need an escrow for this deal.
