Waht you need is a CHROOT FTP. Here are the steps which you can do to ensure that the user is able to view only his account files.

1. usweradd -d <home directory> -s /etc/ftponly <FTPusername>
2. Edit the file /etc/ftpaccess and add the following in it:-
guestgroup ftpchroot
guestuser <FTPusername>
3. Add /etc/ftponly entry in /etc/shells

/etc/ftponly is just a normal file which contains the login message:-
example

echo 'You are not allowed to log in interactively'
exit 0


Hope it helps!!

Sounds to me like vsftp is not chrooting at all, but is chdiring instead.

I suspect that if you were to connect to the server with a terminal FTP client and login as a restricted user you will then cd .. up the tree.

I see there are a few configuration options relateing to chroot. What does your conf file look like?
