An IP address is not a person. Tagged doesn't know who did this, so they can't tell you. Even if they wanted to, they'd be violating data protection laws, their own privacy, and possibly their merchant agreement by giving out that information.

Not an IP address--the user. A user account had to use my card info to purchase the goods. If Tagged can't tell me who did it, at least they can shut down that account for fraud.

I'm looking through Tagged's terms of service and privacy policy right now to see what their terms are on issues like this.

Undoubtedly they will do so when they receive the chargeback, without your help. Not that it will be of any consequence to you or the actual person that opened the account.
