I may be wrong on this, but I think if I file here they have to show up, or have someone appointed to show up or they default.

trying to fight the chargeback is usually pointless as well. his bank has to reverse it or he has to call his bank and ask them to reverse it. either way, its him and the bank (of which he is a client) against you.

without knowing the facts... it would seem to me that you feel you delivered what you promised and they are prepared to argue that you didn't. don't get emotional and caught up in trying to win or better them. be rational... its about money... nothing else. if its going to cost you financial and emotional hardship to keep going and possibly recover nothing, then you need to ask yourself if its worth it.

if he called his bank and charged it back... its over. what do you mean "freeze that account"? its his bank that issues the chargeback... its their credit card. its their client. its 100% out of your control.

if the transaction was for traffic, then i don't think you are going to get it reversed. he can just say he did not get what he thought he was getting and thats the end of it. i seriously doubt he called his bank and said someone used his card without his authorization... he gave a reason why he did not want to pay. that puts the ball back in your court and basically, you stand little chance of changing it. you have to find out the reason for the chargeback. if he lied saying his card was stolen/used without his authorization... then i would say you have a chance. if he said he did not get what he thought he was buying (i forgot the terms and codes - its been a while) - then you can't argue something that abstract with a bank that has no real reason to take your side against their own client.

from what i have seen so far, i would say that the best advice for you is to just walk away and consider it a lesson learned.
