I believe my calendar on iPad has Malware & need to have someone from Genius Bar look at it for me. Having trouble scheduling appointment as I’m unable to find topic that fits my problem.
iPad Pro, iPadOS 14
If running iOS 13 or earlier versions, check: Settings - Passwords & Accounts - Accounts - Any rogue entries here? If so, delete the rogue account.
If running iOS 14, check: Settings - Calendar - Accounts - Any rogue entries here? If so, delete the rogue account.
If running iOS 13 or earlier versions, check: Settings - Passwords & Accounts - Accounts - Any rogue entries here? If so, delete the rogue account.

The problem that you describe is very easy to resolve.
It is highly probable that an inadvertent click on a website link has “subscribed” an additional (unwanted) Calendar to your device - and this unexpected Calendar is exposing unwanted calendar events and sending you unexpected “adverts” or other warnings.
You will need to check for what’s out of place...
iOS/iPadOS13 and earlier: Settings > Passwords and Accounts
iOS/iPadOS14: Settings > Calendar > Accounts
Look for an “account” that shouldn’t be in the list of accounts - as this will likely include the Calendar that contains all the unwanted events. When you find the suspect account, tap - then select Delete Account. This should resolve the problem in its entirety.
I hope you find this helpful in finding the source - and in resolving the issue if an unexpected Calendar is found.
You should not need to have a Genius look at it. Malware Calednars can be removed directly by you.
> Delete the offending Calendar.I believe I have maleware in my calendar on my iPad that would require a visit to Genius Bar at Apple store, but I am unable to find a way to communicate that. Not one of the choices.
