Maybe a functionality to revert payments.

That would bring even more scams

I'm sad to report that Bitcoinstore.com has encountered our first scammer:

*
refund which was promptly sent.

Unfortunately an extra 4.5119 was also sent to him that he is refusing to return. (I understand that this is partially Bitcoinstore's fault)

The Bitcoin address and payments in question are: http://blockchain.info/address/1H4UR5M72Ybpo4zrqWe8JKKYSeN1gxqBcU

He has refused to refund the money when asked via email, and when I called on the telephone, he hung up on me as soon as I told him my name.

Other than the reputational enforcement from this posting, I don't know what else can be done.

Any ideas?

BitcoinStore customer information is normally considered private, and will only be divulged in cases of blatant attempted scamming.
Because this order was placed with Bitcoin, we have no idea if the above is his real name,
but we can assume that the address is valid, and I know that the telephone number is valid as well
because when I called him, he knew exactly who I was, and why I was calling.

Thanks for the info, I have been scammed myself and i know it sucks. My thread is in here if you can help me.
I wouldn't (personaly) add contact info online such as phones or address, but i would try to find the scammer's accounts to post
