Huddled masses can't hunt since User Tips are not apparent in huddled masses view and there is no way to click/tap navigate TO "/content" list that has the refinement

There is another way, involving creating a new calendar, moving the invitation to it, then deleting the calendar: Handling Calendar Invitation Spam.

Aloha SJF.

Thank you. I look at it as the old one-two punch. Use your method if you discover spam in your calendar. Then use this method to prevent more. Since it will be in your mailbox you can report it to Apple as phishing.

At a future date can you tell me how you got your User Tip to on the new reward system to post in the Using ASC Forum ?

Thank you. Stay well. Bob.
