🧛‍♂️Account Issues❓ Reddit?????

I know someone here on reddit irl. Reddit has locked their account saying they need to reset their password. Reddit even gave them a link. Well that was nice if reddit. There's one problem. The link doesn't work. So they went into settings to reset their password and can't get in to reset their password that way. Why does reddit find they have to mess with people like this? Tell you have to reset your password with no way to reset it. Not very user-friendly reddit. If anyone has any ideas on how to fix this please let me know so I can tell my friend.
