The logical conclusion that is drawn from what they believe is that the punishment for sin is taken place twice.
Yes, there are many people who believe this where I live, although they probably wouldn't put it that way. They believe that Christ paid for everyone's sins, but if you choose not to accept Christ's payment on your behalf, then you have to pay for them yourself forever in hell. So it wasn't that Christ didn't pay for them, but that you refused His payment.
