The link which they link you to is http://168.187.43.35/_us/webscr/index.html?ref=pd_irl_gw_r/102-8758036-5777720?opt=oa&page=recs/sign-in-secure.html&response=tg/recs/recs-post.
The reason I really know this is a scam is because......I fell for it 2 months ago. Luckily my card I used was for my checking account, and my bank asked me if I was trying to withdraw $400 from my account at the location of Albania (spelling?). The country which is nowhere I go.....
Point is don't fall for it, I did and I am happy that there is theif protection.....
P.S. Flame/laugh at me for all I care.

Like I said to Kevin on IRC yesterday: Omnimaga is the place to be for your calc needs ^^ (Well, that's what the conclusion was, anyway)

PayPal has it's ups and downs. You might want to limit the amount of money you spend, and make sure you never fill in your account information anywhere except paypal.com.
