Last 3 or 4 paypal related mails on the full disclosure mailing list also report that paypal is either not responding, not cooperating or weaseling their way out of paying bounties all the time. I'm not sure how seriously I can take this.

Same exact thought I had, after reading just that I closed the tab.

A better way would be to make good on your promise and fix the mistake, not pretend it didn't happen.

Although, in real life, for the majority of people... maybe the opposite is true.
