Malware on site

Since Itch support hasn't replied in a solid week despite reporting the game, I'm reaching out here. Confirmation ID: R-74867

https://nomaaaaa.itch.io/struggle-simulator has had their developer be caught up in a malware attack, and they have lost control of their Itch.io and Discord accounts. The Itch account used to have the game available to play on site, it has been replaced with a download file that's aimed to infect the C drive and hijack your accounts, especially Discord accounts - and ransom them back. There have been many users trying to warn others of this in the comments section, but the hijacker has been repeatedly deleting the various comments. Is there any moderator that can get Itch support staff's attention on this report? I understand there is a queue, but considering that this is a case of Malware on the site... Well, I'd rather see this get taken care of sooner rather than later.

Moderators? Anyone? The hacker just purged and closed the comments section completely, we can't warn people of the Malware anymore on the page, yet the Malware is still intact. Can we please get somebody on this so more people don't get infected?
