Presumably you don't send out emails appearing to come from service@paypal.com saying things like "Reminder: You've still got a money request", with an HTML body that looks exactly like Paypal but contains a fraudulent link and phone number, so you should be fine.


Or, worse, I find that most of these are real links from real paypal.

No, I didn't. I did get those emails a lot on my university dot edu email. I understand there are legacy/compatibility challenges with the telephone infrastructure but you'd think this problem is entirely solvable with emails. :/


It is easily solvable. But it has to be implemented on the receiving side. Ask your university to put something in place!
