Hi @DonnieC,

As the article shared by Gjoksi shows, on iOS the Scam Alert feature also detects spam calendars and events that contain dangerous links. There are all kinds of tricks by which websites can add events on your calendar and attach links to them. They can set reminders very often and you can wake up with notifications from the calendar app that invite you to click on some scam URL.

Regards,

Alex
