Damned good one, they even got their URL into PayPal's FAQ:

https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_help-ext&leafid=1782

Either this is a whole new level of phishing, or the left hand doesn't know
what the right hand is doing.  You tell me.

Yes, PayPal apparently needs some. guidance in getting their info pages
to correspond to their policy - see the above URL, see the mail I quoted,
and then see this URL:

https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_help-ext&leafid=56413

Also might want to have another chat with your powers that be, they
seem to be out of touch with what their company and their business
partners over at Providian are actually doing.
