Try buying something using your Canadian PayPal account on an American IP address with a shipping address in Vietnam.
I did, my account got insta-blocked and I could not complete my transaction. I would have been perfectly happy to risk losing my money instead of having a 100% chance of not receiving the thing I want because of PayPal's paranoia.

- aianus 11y agoIf there was an easy way to unblock my account I wouldn't mind much, but they wanted me to pick up my Canadian landline to prove that it was actually me buying things in Vietnam... Can't make this stuff up.
