You left out the fourth step!
4. The client receives their credit card statement, claims not to have
authorized the charge, and the credit card company charges it back to you.
You provide documentation to the credit card company, but the credit card
company doesn't know what a domain name is, and since you have so signature
they rule against you.
Luckily it doesn't usually happen. But when it does, the RSP loses the
money, and it's nice to at least be able to deprive the forgetful customer
of the domain name. After all, if he doesn't remember buying it, he surely
shouldn't miss it.
