OMG I appear to have been scammed!?!?!?

Hi,
First time ever, I think I've been scammed. I bought a mattress from a company called New Leaf via their website. Payment (~£80) went through WorldPay on my Mastercard. It's now 10 days later and I have had no email from them, they don't respond to my email requests and they don't return my phonecalls.
A bit of digging suggests they have form for this kind of thing and that they previously traded under a different name with similar complaints.
What can I do?
Many thanks,
John

Raising a dispute with your card issuer and reporting it to trading standards is probably your best option."The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts."

I've spoken to the card company, they are raising a dispute.
Thanks
