Spam Calendars
- codetrotter 5y agoCame across this today, when my mother called me and asked for help with messages on her phone that said her phone was “at risk” and stuff like that. And she told me it wasn’t regular SMS nor email. And first I thought she’d seen some deceptive banners on the web then, but she also told me it wasn’t in the browser or anything like that. I told her to pull down the notifications screen and send me a screenshot. Turned out she had become subscribed to a calendar that had spam events in it. I helped her identify the spam calendar and unsubscribe from it. Apparently this is yet another way the spammers and scammers have found to use.
