iPhone Calendar Virus

Last week I went onto a movie site and I clicked the wrong thing and somehow ended up with this (photo attached) in my calendar. I know if I click on the link I’m probably doomed so I haven’t. there is no option for me to delete these events or edit the calendar subscriptions to them like you can with any other event or calendar. They’re just stuck there it seems and they pop up every day and won’t stop. I can’t mute the Event reminders and because it remakes or adds them in two day increments. I’ve looked Online for hours and nothing seems to help because it doesn’t let me delete anything. I don’t think it’s spam like most posts say to people because I cannot remove anything. Help

You’ve subscribed to a spam-filled calendar. Unsubscribe.


No “virus”, no “hack”, nothing wrong here, just a spam-filled calendar subscription that was offered and was accepted.


Here is what happened, and how to remove the subscribed calendar:
