If you're suspicious, get his personal information before trading. Any legit trader wouldn't have a problem with that, and if he refuses go somewhere else.

Edit: Ask for a detailed photo of gov't ID, a photo of him holding the ID with his face in it, and have him write your name and the date on a piece of paper in the picture.
