alphabay deposit issues..was i phished?

hi all, i deposited 1.5btc to AB and 30 mins after 3 confirmations, i still have no coins in my account. however, after looking on blockchain, it only shows one transaction (mine) to the address and the coins are still at the address and have not been moved. so it doesnt appear my coins have been stolen so, is AB just being slow at moving coins or was there a possibility i was phished? i've used a bookmarked URL for the past 3 months w zero issues at all. thanks

edit: coins showed up about an hour or so after i got 3 confirmations..my morning coffee got the best of me and got me waaaay too anxious, time to take a dab and chill out

Same except I have 5 confimations on 2 seperate transactions and nothing shows up, I hate Alphabay, theyre selective scamming at the admin level if you care to read the ongoing feedabck, if only my fav vendors werent tied to it for some reason.

You either got phished, or the market glitched and skipped processing a deposit or is backed up. You should be able to verify via the blockchain that the money has reached the address though, and you should have checked to make sure that the deposit address is PGP-signed and certified to belong to you and noted when it may no longer. If it's not on the blockchain, the admins deny everything, and it was PGP-signed correctly, and you have full access to your account with 2-FA having been on and no people with "Shared Access" who shouldn't have it, then that's how you know they likely fucked you. It should still be traceable via blockchain to a degree however, as in you should see what address the coins actually went to and if they did hit your deposit address, but balance never updated, and then they were moved, and admins are pushing it off, then that's when you scream the British are coming and AlphaBay is scuttled soon afterwards.

If any of that is not true, then you probably goofed somewhere.

Just do something that is going to require another hour or two of your time and attention, then check it out. Hopefully you will be happy to see the money sitting in your account. Phishing is definitely something to worry about, but not as common as people like to make you think.

Do you guys not bother with reading or what? AB requires 6 confirmations before the funds actually appear in your wallet. Starting to understand why so many people keep losing funds

Mine took ages after the confirmations. They go through eventually... I hate how slow ab Is. I'm going back to Nucleus. It feels instant compared to alpha
