PayPal Express Checkout Recurring Payment Profile Suspended (due to max failed payments)
-------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: PayPal will send this for subscriptions created with PayPal Standard and Express Checkout.
The same payload is used for both, which means, as seen below, the payload is very different to a
normal PayPal Standard IPN. Most notably, it uses 'recurring_payment_id' parameter to refer to the
subscription's ID instead of the 'subscr_id' param.
