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.

    Actually I think from what I see in the message that it's a good indication that the live.com site/organization has been hacked. How does it feel to know that ALL your personal information, emails, site surfing, powerpoints, spreadsheets and god knows what else is completely accessible by hackers? The dark web welcomes you and your credit card with enthusiasm.

    I don't have this option in my outlook.com account. There is a similar option hotels, flights, packages only.

    Adding to the list. Items are going to Junk folder as they should, but from even though they're flagged as Junk, it is still creating a calendar entry!

    I'm not seeing them in the junk folder. If there were there, I could delete them.

    Yeah, you don't want to Decline them, as that merely confirms they have a valid email address to send further spam to.
