I am vendor "IPutOnMyMask" on Alphabay. I have withdrawals that have been pending for more than 12 hours now, totaling roughly .6 BTC ($734.556 at Alphabay's current exchange rate) and another .5 BTC in escrow. I contacted support about this and was told my account was "under investigation" despite having 94% positive reviews over the past year.
It is also worth noting that I am "under investigation" by BigMuscles, the same staff member who has asked users for their private keys multiple times in the past.
Anyone else having issues like this? I have advised my customers to message staff with testimonials of my quality of service, in hopes that they are actually investigating my account and maybe this will push them to unfreeze my funds, but frankly I am very suspicious that Alphabay is just going to steal my money.
Edit: Proof that I am really IPutOnMyMask, as my username here does not match my username on Alphabay.

Why are you under investigation?
You have 6% non-positive feedback, was it created lately, and maybe caused your customers to complain about you?
I believe, that the issue is you being under investigation, which led to suspending your withdrawing
