iPhone calendar spam

Thank you, Thank you!! I was trying everything else and nothing worked. This worked *and I bow*. And by the way, in case anyone is wondering, I was able to "cut" and then "delete" from the same first date listed. Changing to a different date was not necessary in my case.

Thank you so much for this! It was doing my head in, but now that seems to have sorted it. The same user had invited me to something every day forever and so a few of these actions and I'm sorted. Thanks again!

Out of this entire thread, this is the only thing that worked for me. Long presses on the calendar event only flashed and didn’t bring up any menus. I’m using an iPad Pro (4th Generation) running iOS 17.1.2.

Thankyou!!!! I tried all other deleting/unsubscribing you name it options and none would work

This worked genius!

you have to be quick “pasting” into another day (and quickly delete that before saving) otherwise If you cut the original entry and take too long it comes back, as the poster said but, just to reinforce his instructions are perfect!!!

Had the same annoying problem and iphone only gave rhe option to decline invite (not fun when spammer sent invite for basically everyday of the year lol). I tried your solution...and it worked! Huge thanks.

Thank you, that worked !

I was receiving a ton of spam from a fake perfume company, I never even bought a perfume in my life…

those spammers aren’t only annoying, they are also veeeery bad at targeting.

When I take these steps I get a notification that says "Deleting this event will remove it from your calendar and notify the invitees that this event has been deleted". This seems it would also confirm to the spammers that this was a valid email address and potentially invite additional spam events?

Thankyou soo much, it worked a treat for me, mine was already grey, I long pressed it and it went normal?! Then on the same day the first day, I long pressed it again and I was able to delete it, it then deleted the other next two months of every day scams! All gone perfect! It said it was from bulldozer whatever that is? I’ve never heard of it before?? Soo Thankyou very much, you saved me a lot of grief! 🤗

I made an account on Apple community support to say thank you for this. I've been stuck with a spam invite for the past two weeks that took over my entire calander and had no way to delete it. Your method worked straight away. Hopefully it stays deleted.

I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR THIS!!!!



I've gone through endless iCal Spam "fix" articles that gave me instructions that don't make sense or tell me to use features that are clearly not there. This is the ONLY thing that finally got rid of my daily notification for "A Mastercard For YOU!".

Apple should send you the next release of iphone for free just for this!!!!

Hi everyone! I’m happy this helped you guys, it was huge pain for me since I use calendar and did not want to lose my appointments. I had no idea so many of you had this issue when I posted this, really happy it helped you!

Thank you!!!! It happened to me too; in "settings" there was neither sender/email nor subscription to remove. I did like you suggested and it worked. The only "problem" is that the sender gets notified about the rejection..... but, who cares.

This is what I did it’s the only solution that makes it permanent, I’ve received other spam and after doing the long press method, it would just appear again on next calendar spam , this is by far the best solution until apple sort it out ..

I found the email in spam email folder. There I coud block the sender, but I cannot remove the invitation in the calendar, even after declining it. All I can do is to turn off the callendar, but this is not the solution. How the invitations got into the calendar I do not know.

I received a spam invite in my calendar, and it showed up in my email. I didn’t realize it was not a good idea to decline, but that is what I did. What does this mean to me now?
