Fake Paypal email?

Hmmm... Just got this in my inbox from "confirm@intl.paypal.com":
"You have added hackmail25@aol.com as a new email address for your
PayPal account.
If you did not authorize this change or if you need assistance with
your account, please contact PayPal customer service at:
https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_login-run
PayPal Customer Service
Please do not reply to this e-mail as this is only a notification.
Mail sent to this address cannot be answered.

Came with logos and everything. I checked my account myself anyways, via the proper method (not clicking on links and by going there myself) and no new emails were added. The paypal link links to "http://www.google.com/url?sa%3dU%26star ... pagina.php" so I can only bet that its fake...
If so, do people really still fall for this crap?
