Calendar says virus may have infected phone

On my calendar, it says Apple sent a notice that my phone may have a virus/security issue. Is this a scam?

iPhone 7, iOS 14

It is indeed a scam attempt.

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.
