1205473 2011-05-29 03:01:00 Firefox is onto it:

Reported Web Forgery!

This web page at pool-71-164-130-174.dllstx.fios.verizon.net has been reported as a web forgery and has been blocked based on your security preferences.

Yep, I have Firefox, and that second link in my post is the one reported in the status bar.

When I click it, it goes to a fake Paypal login page, the url in the address bar is the same as the second one listed in my post....

SCAM!!

1205474 2011-05-30 01:13:00 I got a call about this today, from a woman who'd Googled and found this thread. Seems they're trying a lot of people! Siobhan Keogh (16063)
1205475 2011-05-30 01:40:00 A lot more hits on Google now for craig.lister@yahoo.com Renegade (16270)
1205476 2011-05-30 04:29:00 Ah interesting! I got an email yesterday from service @intl.paypal.com - subject reads "Receipt for your PayPal payment to surfermom2"

It actually made it to my inbox but I suspected it was spam (esp since I don't actually have a paypal and have no idea what the hell surfermom2 is). Didn't open it - marked it as spam straight away.

1205477 2011-05-30 09:05:00 Here's a poor fellow trying hard to make a living, and you lot toss his emails in the bin. What with that, and his hero Little Rodney now being a bit redundant, he is having a bad week/month.
Let us hope he doesn't go over to the dark side and start firing off treaty claims. ;-)

I received the Craig Lister email in May and this morning received the following:
Notice how the email is "store.lister".......that #@$^#ing name again.

Pops up from time to time, they must be doing a rerun of it.
