How to remove an unwanted calendar invitation on my iPhone?

I received both an email and an invitation into my inbox of my calendar “Alert Trojan Detected” the calendar selected doesn’t have a delete option like all my other calendars. There is no option through accounts. How do I delete this?

Hi HelpMeNowPlease01,


Thanks for contacting Apple Support Communities!


We understand that you need some help to remove a spam calendar invite.


Check out this resource which will show you how to remove a spam calendar invite: Delete spam calendars and events on iPhone - Apple Support

"How to remove calendar spam on your iPhone in earlier versions of iOS

  1. Open the Calendar app.
  2. At the bottom of the screen, tap Calendars.
  3. Look for a calendar that you don't recognize. Tap the More Info button  next to that calendar, then scroll down and tap Delete Calendar.

If this doesn't fix the issue, delete the calendar subscription in Settings:

  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Tap Calendar > Accounts. Or if you use iOS 13, tap Passwords & Accounts > Accounts instead.
  3. Tap Subscribed Calendars.
  4. Look for a calendar that you don't recognize. Tap it, then tap Delete Account."


We hope this helps you.


Cheers!

On my slightly older iPhone 8, I can long press the event, select “cut” from the menu that pops up, and then just close the calendar app. (Don’t paste the event anywhere)

The event is still on your “clipboard”, so I go long press and copy something else on notepad or wherever to replace the event in my clipboard, deleting the event without interaction with it in any other way.


Works for me every time so far.
