Even when someone declines a charge it doesn't mean you can't collect what you believe to be money legitimately owed you. You can hand it to a collection agency if it's worthwhile. If not (e.g., you took a card w/o any verification from someone in a country whose name you can't even pronounce) OH WELL, you're a fool, or it better be part of your cost of doing business.
The funny part is, the scam artists already know that "mismatch between account holder's name and cc holder's name / address / country" is one of the first and most elementary anti fraud checks. So, if they steal a cc from Joe Sixpack of Bumfuck, Iowa, guess who signs up to Amazon AWS for 200 VMs and 20 minutes worth of service? --srs
