We are aware of this scammer creating pages, every page they have created has been suspended and taken down as soon as it has been detected. Additionally we’re updating and modifying internal rules to catch stuff like this before it happens. Sadly I can’t reveal more than that since it’s likely the scammer is reading this thread.

As a reminder, itch.io is a open publishing platform. Although we have many checks and systems in place to detect abuse and prevent abuse, no automated system is going to be 100% perfect. Just like any place where you would download software off the internet, approach it with a little (or a lot of) suspicion. If it looks fishy then don’t download it, and report it. You can find report links on the bottom of each page.

Thanks

would you be able to give official statement to help the person bringing awareness about said scam and how they’ve been phished? Cause they could lose discord and $1,000 as a result 

which isn’t fair at all . Of course they were cautious generally speaking but never expected a site they used for long time in development,

To be what blindsided them. 

also: there’s a discord user Id grabbed and such of said person who sent the phished site if that helps.
