Seller account blocked and $500 held for 90 days

I created an Amazon Seller Account to sell a few items to make some money for Christmas. I had the account for a couple of weeks and sold 5 items all of which were shipped with no complaints. I checked my e-mail today and Amazon has blocked my seller account and is holding the $500 I made for 90 days! They will not give me a reason! I've appealed and asked for a reason and they responded with this:

Thank you for writing about your selling account.

We regret that your account has failed our review process. Your account has been closed and you are no longer eligible to sell on our site.

Please note that we will be unable to correspond further about this situation.

The blocking of your account is a permanent action. We take such steps in the interest of maintaining a free and fair venue for all participants.

I responded asking them about the "review process" they are speaking of and they blocked my email address! I begged them not to hold my $500 as this is my Christmas money and money to get home to see my mother, who is very ill. Why would they do this? I had no buyer complaints! Can anyone help me get my money back?
