I've covered this one at length with Meshios. I'm not condoning what he did (and in fact, made some stern remarks to him about it), however, it is a good learning experience for a noob.

Couple tips:
Don't use wire transfers, unless you are darn sure the seller is reputable. Personally, I use a credit card for just about any transactions I conduct. It gives me added security if I am defrauded. A reputable escrow service is also a viable option and I prefer it for large transactions.

If a person is warranting traffic/rev, you buy at your own risk--it may dry up and/or be fake.

buy a decent name, develop it, sell it

rinse repeat

paypal is prob the best bet for quick transactions unless your making big deals

should maybe check into making a zune or mylo site, they are pretty up and coming at the minute
