Go to the real paypal.com and change your passwords.
When I hit a fake capture website, I kill my browser(s).
re-open it on one of my personal websites.
clear all cache, passwords, etc..
kill my browser again.. and restart it.
Paranoid and completely thoretically not needed, I know..
If I'm bored and killing time.. I have fired up sniffers
and gone to the legit site and logged in (with an invalid password or a
trash account) just to watch the Javascript running in a window somewhere
or in the page I'm on do weird things and try to call home.
Sometimes you'll see things.. sometimes not.
