Remote validation - Generated remote url is wrong

I am trying to add remote validation for old password in the Account view (ChangePassword section).

I have a viewmodel Areas/Private/ViewModels/Account/ChangePasswordViewModel.cs which contains the OldPassword field:

[Remote("IsPasswordValid", "Account", HttpMethod="Post", ErrorMessage="Wrong password")]
public string OldPassword { get; set; }

And a controller Areas/Private/Controllers/AccountController.cs which contains the action for the validation:

// ...
[Area("Private")]
// ...

public JsonResult IsPasswordValid(string pwd) {
    return Json(true);
}

When I run the project and inspect the OldPassword field I notice the following data-val-remote-url:

/Private/Account/Index?action=IsPasswordValid&controller=Account

which ofcourse doesn't work. I expected to see the following url:

/Private/Account/IsValidPassword

Am I missing something here?
