What about for people who did not use a credit card to pay for linode but instead relied on PayPal. Should they follow the same steps? What about other cautious steps?

I don't think they allow paypal as a payment method

I've got a PayPal business mastercard which is connected to PayPal Smart Connect. They may not allow PayPal proper but you could pay using PayPal by way of their card. I use my PayPal card hooked into Smart Connect for a good number of recurring payments like this.

So I guess the answer would be, if you ended up hooking your PayPal account up to Linode in the way I described, yeah follow the same steps as other cards, otherwise it's not even possible to have a problem.
