I don't think the FTP ACL maps over to the linux ACL so the owner of the file would be the user who executed the FTP daemon.
Depends on the ftp server.

I know linux servers running cpanel and pure-ftpd as the ftp server map it to the account holders user name.

try chmod 700 (i think) (owner RWX .group --- and public ---)
or Chmod 500 (i think) (owner RW- Group --- and public ---)
Chmod 600 (i think) (owner R-X Group --- public ---)

R= read
W = Write
X = execute
- = No permission.
