I am suddenly receiving spam calendar invitations/appointments in Outlook (Microsoft 365 Family).  Disappointing that Microsoft has not addressed this.  My McAfee virus scan is also giving me the "No Viruses" when I scan.

    Why isn't a calendar invite something you have to accept?

    ....especially if it is a reoccurring series.

    Put rules in place such that the recipient has to approve or accept any calendar invite as opposed to the invite simply dropping to the calendar upon hitting the Inbox.

    It is a very reasonable recommendation.

    I agree with them dropping off in frequency. In fact last week 2 calendar appointments were in my junk mail, but did not appear on my calendar anywhere. I am thinking and hoping MS is giving this attention and blocking them at the server level.
    Its an improvement recently.

    commander02 If you ever figure out how to do it from the calendar or an iPhone, please share your answer. Microsoft doesn't seem to think this is important enough to post a detailed response how to stop the spam appointments.

    3 months and counting for a solution...
