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.

    If you don’t need the problematic Outlook calendar that is giving you spam on your iPhone or iPad (or I assume other devices), I did the following:

    IPhone Settings/ Calendar/ Accounts/ Outlook (or Hotmail) and then toggled off ‘Calendars’. Problem solved. Just be sure you don’t need or use the Outlook’s calendar feature before doing this. I tried all the suggestions that I found in a Google search and nothing else worked. This did.

    Can't you use the approach I used on my PC? Uninstall the Microsoft Calendar from your phone and use GMail's calendar instead.

    There's NO justification for Microsoft allowing push events being placed on our calendars without intentionally subscribing to an external source.

    Will try
