Paypal 'Confirm Your Information!' email is a spoof and part of a phishing scam...

This spoof Paypal email (see image below) is in HTML format, the link given in step 1 leads to a forged Paypal form which requires personal, credit or debit card details and email account use name and password (see image below).

Note: This spoof has been confirmed, from numerous reports, to be now using differing URLs (see summary above). It has further been repeatedly reported throughout March 2004.

Any information submitted is processed through a script located on the same server as the bogus content.

If you have received this email, please remember that it is very common for these email scams to be redistributed at a later date with only slightly different content or the same but with the fake page(s) hosted by a different provider. Also, once you have received one of these hoaxes, it is also common place to receive at least another one and usually a day or two after the first, although not necessarily from the same apparent sender.
