Spam in Calendar on iPhone

[MacUser09]

Just heard a notification from my iPhone. When I checked, there is an advert for RayBans from some Chinese website. Looks like it's some sort of mass mail out, but what I can't understand is how it has been added to my Calendar.

Can someone please explain? Is there a setting I can switch off to stop this?

Last thing I want is to start getting spam in my Calendar. It's bad enough in mail.

Thanks

EDIT. Also in Calendar on my Macbook. when I try to delete it, I get a message that if I decline invitation, the sender will be notified. what to do?

I received the same thing today. Weired thing is, that I don't use my iCloud email address it was sent to anywhere, nor that combination of words in any other email account. So how did they get this email address if apple is the only one who knows it?

Thanks.

I have contacted Apple Feedback and explained the problem. In the meantime, I have set invitations to go directly to Mail so that I can just delete any further ones. The current one, I will just leave untouched for now until more information is available.

What is this spam that has been going on with iOS? First I got the Calendar span, later I got the photo spam and just now I got a reminders spam.

I got one of these and hit decline without thinking and after googling it I realised I let them know my email is active so I hope Apple adds a junk filter soon
