Check out THIS Full Tilt "feature" - I'm outta there

Uhh.. how else would you expect FTP to handle this? If they simply reversed this transaction if the "mistyped" player disagrees, FTP would become a haven for trade scamming.

You send me $X on Stars, I send you $X on FTP, then I write FTP and say it was a typo, they refund my money - you get hosed. They know nothing of our agreement or any transfers on Stars.

This is a much worse situation than what's happened to you. You made a pretty serious error, and the other person involved (who has not made any errors) gets to decide to do the right thing or not. No real other way this could work between strangers on a "corporate policy" type level.

I do think FTP should have more security with regards to transfers, possibly an e-mail confirmation requirement (ie: I try and send you money, it makes me respond to an automated e-mail to confirm). Also, just making you enter the full name of the recipient would basically eliminate these kinda situations. At the very minimum, a confirmation screen within the client.
