Apple Calendar spam on the rise again, mostly crypto scams

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-10-06 01:53:41

We first saw Apple Calendar spam almost a decade ago, when it hit such levels that the iPhone maker issued an apology and said that it was blocking suspicious senders. We’ve seen the problem re-emerge several times since then, with Apple even publishing a YouTube video on how to remove it.

iCloud Calendar invites are being abused to send callback phishing emails disguised as purchase notifications directly from Apple's email servers, making them more likely to bypass spam filters to land in targets' inboxes. Earlier this month, a reader shared an email with BleepingComputer that claimed to be a payment receipt for $599 charged against the recipient's PayPal account.
