Hack information in my calendar

Hi, I recently bought the new iPhone 12 Mac Pro since setting it up I constantly keep getting notifications from my calendar that my phone is being hacked and to tap on the URL. I am quite reluctant to act on this as I would doubt apple would inform me of a hack through my Callander does anyone know how to stop this from happening permanently please

You got tricked into installing a rogue calendar; your phone does not have a virus.


If your phone has iOS 13 or earlier: Go to Settings/Passwords & Accounts, look under Subscribed Calendars, tap on the offending calendar and delete it.


If your phone has iOS 14: Go to Settings/Calendar/Accounts, Tap Subscribed Calendars, tap on the offending calendar and delete it.


And in the future beware of "free" offers
