I have a iPad that has events in my calendar.

My iPad is not jailbroke as far as I know. I did buy from a Apple store new. But someone has been in my iPad and put a lot of events in my calendar. One event says if I don’t use their app to remove what’s on here within a certain time my front camera will be used and all my contact will be sent pictures and my location. I didn’t and as far as I know no picture were sent out.

iphone/iPads /macs can’t be hacked or infected right? So what is going on with my iPad?

Here are two screenshots of what’s in my calendar.

iPad, iPadOS 14

The problem that you describe likely being 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 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.
