    It depends on whether or not you set PayPal's triggers off. How much money are you thinking of transferring in the transaction? If it's too much (that you're receiving, not sending) PayPal automatically checks up on things, and the fact that you're in asia might seem a bit suspicious.

    I say this because I've had my account limited (and unlimited :) ) before.

    If your in another country and log into his account it will most likely limit the account and make you verify his information. If you can verify everything they ask then you might be okay after.
    I had a paypal closed for no reason hah so its hard to say, anything is possible with paypal

    when paypal deduct abnormality such as blocked country ip, they might call your uncle to confirm whether he make the payment or the account is hacked or they might ask your uncle to provide the document to confirm his information provided is true
    Not suggested to do in this way, if you want to buy something, better ask your uncle help, not log into his account

    just get all your uncle's document. You will need it when paypal locks the account coz youre accessing it using different country ip :)
