while using my iPhone today, I accidentally clicked on a link which added something to my calendar. Immediately I switched off my phone and switched it back on again. Then cleared my history and cookies and again restarted my phone. I thought I had taken care of it. But now getting a Calendar notification. Attaching a pic. Please help how to do a security check and remove any virus from the phone.
iPhone 8, iOS 13
Now that you've identified it as calendar spam.
Report that junk and delete it.
It's calendar spam. Google the steps to remove it.
Thanks for the prompt response. I have deleted my Calendar app. Will that help? But i received the notification again after deleting also.
P.S. I also deleted a bunch of other apps pertaining to sensitive information, but I’m still worried. Is there any chance my phone has been already hacked and sensitive information stolen?
I have deleted the Calendar app from the phone. Should I reinstall and report to junk if I get it again?
I was checking the settings and found a strange ‘subscribed to calendar’ entry in password and security. I have deleted the account and disabled syncing of other calendars like gmail also. Hope this will solve the issue. Would appreciate any inputs on this.
