Fraudulently Charged Credit card Twice

Hi Team,

I have ordered Reebok Kit (Shoes, Track Suit, Bag & Towel) worth Rs.3199. My member ID is ITBC09895607. My Credit Card has been processed/swiped twice. First swipe was done on 26th Feb’09 & then I even received sms regarding my transaction declined which states "Ur order with BookClub for Reebok Fitness Kit for 3199 failed on credit card. You can pay by Cash on Delivery. SMS RFIT to 567678. TnC apply". When I called to confirm, he informed that transaction has been declined and swiped 2nd time on 24th Mar’09.

I have received one set of my Reebok Kit. When I mailed them they replied me back stating:
