Thanks for the heads up, name looks a little fishy, too. Looks just like PayPal's link name, what do you know!?

Shortly after activating a hosting account they began uploading the phishing site. We were on to them right away because of the name so we were watching their every move.

Did you suspend the account or are you still gathering information?

We suspended the account as soon as they uploaded the PayPal phishing page. Our first real clue was when they created a sub named paypal.com
