Unable to report users, collections for spam "download" links

I made a support request for this issue as well: 306585


In the past I'd get comments on my game with sketchy "download here" links, which I was able to report and delete. Now, I'm getting collections with only my game in them, and on the collection comment for the game is a sketchy "download here" link. When I viewed it, I found no way to report it. When I went to the user's profile, I was only able to block them and couldn't report them.


Can itch.io add an option to report public collections, and to report users? Or is there a way to do this already? Is anyone else seeing this type of spam on their games?

I've let our admins know.

Thanks for the report, looks like the spam detector isn’t hitting collection pages correctly. We’ll get these accounts cleared out.

Thanks for the fast action on this! I appreciate it. 🙏
