                                        "X-PAYPAL-SECURITY-PASSWORD: xxxxxxx\r\n" .
                                        "X-PAYPAL-APPLICATION-ID: APP-80W284485P519543T\r\n" .
                                        "X-PAYPAL-REQUEST-DATA-FORMAT: NV\r\n" .
                                        "X-PAYPAL-RESPONSE-DATA-FORMAT: NV\r\n"
