I called the person who filled out the second page and spoke to
her husband.  He sounded appropriately concerned.

The rest, I only have their PayPal login and password.  (Or at
least, what was their password before the phisher probably changed
them.)

On a good (?) note, after two days there are no entries in the
same scammer's eBay phishing directory beyond his initial test
entries.  Unfortunately, this is probably only because he hasn't
yet done his phishing run.
