It does - which is why it's not standard process for many, many businesses.
I'll only do it when a sale is worth >$500, and the buyer sounds legit, but the sale its self looks fraudulent (international shipping to a third-world country, a large order of an easily resellable item that the buyer could get cheaper elsewhere etc.) ... For times when there's a very big part of you wanting to tell someone to go jump, but you haven't got enough evidence to be sure that you're not just pissing off a good opportunity.
If it's domestic, I'll often refund the credit card and insist on bank transfer if I suspect fraud, but often the only reliable & cheap payment method for international customers is credit card.
