first calendar now photos invitation spam

I have not downloaded that app and am getting the same spam in both calendar and photos.

Download and run Etrecheck. Copy and paste the results into your reply. Etrecheck is a diagnostic tool that was developed by one of the most respected users here in the ASC and recommended by Apple Support to provide a snapshot of the system and help identify the more obvious culprits that can adversely affect a Mac's performance.

Thanks Old Toad. That's a great looking diagnostic tool that I will be sure to use on my Mac Mini for other purposes.

This issue of spam invites invading our calendars and photo streams is not a hardware issue, and obviously spans across more devices and platforms than just a laptop or desktop.

This is instead a security issue with iCloud (insecurities on our parts?) and is most definitely needing to be addressed on the server side and iOS side of things. Prior to The latest updates across all Apple based systems the interweb has no record of this type of "attack".

It can tell is there's been any adware or malware installed on your computer. It good to know as much about the system configuration as possible.

I understand the direction that you are going. However, I can assuredly say that I have not turned on or signed into my Mac Mini (the only "computer" with my iCloud info) for over a week. A longer period than I have been experiencing this issue.

My sole Apple product use has been my iPhone 6s with always up to date iOS. All other computer use is a Windows PC for business applications.

Because of this unfortunately Etrecheck is an invalid test for myself.

Same problem here.

First time I've seen this !

I receive a Photo invitation in a chinese language and 1 day later a calendar invitation.

I decline all.

I just read now that if i decline an invitation it will send my real name ?? Seriously ?

Why are you doing this Apple ? Why send my real name if i decline an invitation ? I hope it's no true !!!

Hopefully Apple doesn't send my credit card information and my real adress ! We are all safe .... !

Please Apple Fix this !!

NB : Btw i haven't download any app from month !

Just wanted to chime in and say that I've been getting these invites too. I've no idea why, they came out of the blue and I've never seen them before. I don't use nor download any IOS apps outside of many of the standard or usual suspects, and my Mac's are work computers only. But it'd be good to have an option to disallow unwanted invites who aren't in your personal contacts as standard regardless, seems if someone can spam out these things everywhere it's required.

I'm also having shares and family shares in iCloud foto and I don't want to loose those shares. Could someone please answer this question? I just received my second invite...

Best wishes

I am having this problem as well. I tried to disable photo share and then re-enable it again, but the invite is still there. Any ideas on how to get rid of this?

The past two weeks I've received about 8 requests in Chinese? The requests pop up when I turn on my phone in the morning before tapping my password. Once I 'log' on, the requests are gone. And now the photo requests--I didn't know I was even on the iCloud!!! Very disconcerting! I'm glad I'm not the only 'hackee'.
