Are you out of your mind?!

How can you possibly conclude that the (destination) RSP is
responsible for the fraud?!  If an RSP receives a transfer
request and it seems legit they approve it (and for some, the
orders are approved immediately if the cc transaction passes
through).  Some people can submit dodgy transfer requests, but
to penalise the RSP for that is just plain stupid.

Obviously if there's any hint that the RSP themselves are
involved in fraud then action should be taken - but simply
receiving a dodgy transfer request doesn't make them bad
apples by any stretch of the imagination.

I don't think you've thought it through.
