How to remove Calendar spam?

Ok, then try turning off each of the 2 calendars individually to see which one is “hosting” the spam calendar (which will probably be the outlook). Then log in to Outlook Web Access (OWA) and delete the spam calendar there.

Thanks so much Lawrence. I’ve deleted the outlook from the calendar account. If I sign back into OWA via internet it has the calendar in there with the ‘rogue’ appointments. I don’t know how to seperate my email from the calendar. I’ve now lost all of my outlook emails (I can access when I log back in but it also adds the calendar) any further help would be appreciated.

Hey Lawrence, not sure what I deleted but I added my outlook back in and the rogue appointments reappeared. I went into settings- passwords and there was stuff that I didn’t know what it was so I deleted them and WOW the ‘rogue’ calendar appointments are gone! So not sure how or why but I can’t thank you enough for continuing on with me until I got it sorted! So thanks again! And hopefully I never click on some random thing again!

When you set up the Outlook account you have control over the features to enable. You have separate switches for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders and Notes. Set it up, but don’t turn on Calendars.

Thanks to yourself & Lawrence Finch, I’ve deleted my rogue calendar, finally.

My daughter is away so was unable to help me. I very nearly bought the confounded ‘security’ just to get rid of them!!

Thank you so much for your easy to follow instructions.

Kindest regards Fififlower14

What gets me Alex is there are idiots (or poor unawares) that will buy the VPN the rogue calendar link redirects you to in the APP Store, believing they need it or else more data will be deleted from their phones (Hah! As LUMI VPN App instructs). I mean how could you believe an instruction that merely originates from a harmless calendar alert. I let it linger for 2 says cuz I was busy yesterday. The way it functions is it inserts 5 consecutive alerts over a 5 hour period twice a day (morning & night) Each one a similar warning with a redirect to the VPN in the APP Store for purchase that purports it will rid your phone of COVID-19. Hah!

This is a serious problem that affects many people in terrible ways.I have an older friend that was frightened and scared into giving their Apple ID and credit card info to a scammer…needless to say it created a huge problem for my friend.We should do all we can to help protect these people from these scams.Knowledge provided by this forum and Apple go such a long way to stop this nonsense.Make it easy for those just learning to ask for help here please

Thank you. It worked

You are welcome.
