This is what you're gonna have to do.
If you still have the box to your iPhone you're in luck, if not go back to at&t and ask them this:
Your phone has a unique number called an IMEI that identifies that device. It is written on the back of the phone here:
I know this is a picture of a 1st gen iphone but it should be the same. The IMEI is where it says IMEI No.:123456789012345, except the one on your phone willbe different.
If you've got the box for your phone, the IMEI will be written on the label. Check if they match up.
If you don't have the box, you may be able to ask at&t what your IMEI was, as that number is registered on the network and that's how they identifyyou.
Hope this helps and good luck getting it back.
EDIT: I just read that they don't print those numbers on the back of the phone anymore (I don't have one in my hands atm I can't check.)
However, the IMEI is printed in the tray for the sim card.
If you can somehow get him to open it up so you can check, that's how you can do it..

Yeah, I'm sure the thief will just let you walk away after allowing you to grab the phone out of their hand(s).
Most people meet up at the carrier's store to complete the transaction so that the phone can be added to the buyer's account immediately. This putsyou in a public place (witnesses) and allows you to verify that the phone is yours or at least legit. Now, some people ask for the IMEI before meeting up forthe transaction just to make sure they aren't wasting their time. I suggest doing that first.
What are you going to do if the seller is legit?

Look back through the past five pages or so and you'll see plenty of posts discussing at least two options for jailbreaking. You can also run a web searchand find an answer.
I believe most people are using winpwn (sp?) or pwnage (mac).

RoughlyDrafted reports on details of the iPhone 2.0.2 firmware 3G connectivity improvements. According to a "source close to AT&T," theconnectivity issues have been caused by iPhones demanding that cell towers devote more power than necessary to their connections. When a "criticalmass" of iPhones, all demanding excessive amounts of power, are connected to a cell tower, the transmitter runs out of power and begins dropping calls anddegrading data delivery. The 2.0.2 firmware update is said to address this issue via modifications to the power control algorithm.
The source also clarifies that iPhones running 2.0 and 2.0.1 firmware are continuing to cause problems for all users, which explains why many users havereported that connection issues persisted after theyupdated their iPhones. This also explains the advertising push for the 2.0.2 update seen with Apple adding a banner ad to the iPhone App Store and AT&T sending text messages to users encouraging them to update theiriPhones.
"This is one of the reasons why AT&T has been sending text messages to users to persuade them to upgrade to the 2.0.2 software. In amixed environment where users are running 2.0, 2.0.1, and 2.0.2, the power control problems of 2.0 and 2.0.1 will affect the 2.0.2 users.
"It is not the network that is fault but the interaction of the bad power control algorithm in 2.0 and 2.0.1 software and the network that is at fault.The sooner everybody is running 2.0.2 software the better things will be. Having seen the graphs the 2.0.2 software has already started to makedifference."
Apple is due to release a software update forthe iPhone in September, but it is not known whether it will include changes to further address the connectivity issues.
