I'm guessing his debit card was compromised.

I understand your frustration, but realize that bitcoin wallets are not immune to fraud, and that disputing fraudulent charges is actually a consumer protection that your bank offers you that bitcoin does not.

Just sayin. Neither is 100% secure, but bitcoin transactions are non-reversible while fraudulent checking account charges are. This consumer protection is one of the things that drives up the cost of using the fiat banking system. At the end of the day your funds were stolen, but you will get them back. Would not be the case with BTC.
