{\bf Internal note:} The exchange refusing a deposit immediately based on
unaccaptable merchant accounts may not be fully implemented (this is a very
recent feature, after all); especially the merchant then automatically
refunding the purchase to the customer is certainly missing.  However,
the entire situation only arises when a merchant is incorrectly configured
and in violation of the terms of service.
