All Devices Calendars is Subscribing to Advertisements/Spam!

[HappyDude20]

I was profoundly annoyed today when I received five notifications telling me to go fix my iPhone since it was compromised. I’m attaching a photo. This was the result of an ad on Safari, I’m guessing.

i couldn’t even remove the calendar items one by one, I had to unsubscribe from this calendar but it won’t let me remove it from my iPhone completely.

“Click Subscibe” is the culprit I’m speaking of.

And even though I’ve unsubscribed from that shared calendar I’m still getting these notifications. (Photo attached)

If you have a recent backup before this problem, wipe the phone and restore from the backup.

I do not have a backup.

Read the link I posted. If that doesn’t work for you, wipe and set up as new, and immediately create an encrypted backup using iTunes, Finder, or iMazing.

That just worked stupendously.
Got rid of it 100%.
Thank you so much BasicGreatGuy.
