Galaxy A54 charger port started smoking.

[Samsung_T92xsWB]

I have a few week old Galaxy A54 and today when I plugged the charger cable in, it started to smoke and nearly melted the cable in a matter of seconds.  I tried another cable - same result.  I immediately turned the phone off and contacted support on Twitter, but they are trying to convince me that *I* caused the problem by not using "an official Samsung charger". 

I have the same charger set up that I've used my my A20 and S10 in the past.  Hasn't changed in years.  This phone problem is dangerous - it gets hot enough to catch on fire in a matter of a few seconds.  I'm actually worried about it burning down my house.

How do I get Samsung to legitimately deal with this problem.  Obviously, I can't call them since I don't dare turn the phone back on, and I can be without a phone for days, much less week if I have to send it to them.

Thanks
