Explain your idea of this 10 BTC fee to the miner. Because Bitcoin is decentralized, you can't forceably withdraw Bitcoin from anybody. If you are suggesting a blacklist propagated by the miners themselves that would force withdraw Bitcoin from every transaction they would send then maybe that would prevent fraud.

The idea is as follows: to pay 1 BTC to V, you need to have an additional 10 BTC on a second address (like a deposit).

You then give V a normal transaction T1, and a second transaction T2. In case T1 is a double spend, V can use T2 to make 10 BTC go to the miner.

In the example you quoted, TX3Out needs to have at least 10.2 BTC in them (which are also owned by the person who wants to pay V).

Does that make the idea clear?
