    Isn't it a better approach to argue that this was a fraudulent transaction, since the payment was taken by a company that is in no relation to the document you have on the share certificate? You authorized a transaction to XYZ ltd but the transaction was taken by a third party that you have no knowledge of, hence the transaction was in fact unauthorized.

    Surely this would be a dispute rather than fraud.

    No. The OP clearly authorised the transaction and received what they paid for.
