While not new for Mac people that use the invite feature in iCal (Apple’s Calendar app) users have seen a serious increase in Spam related invites over the past few weeks.

Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!

In a statement given to iMore‘s Rene Ritchie, an Apple spokesperson said the company working to block spam invites.

We are sorry that some of our users are receiving spam calendar invitations. We are actively working to address this issue by identifying and blocking suspicious senders and spam in the invites being sent.

However, you can create a new Calendar, name it Spam, move the spam invitation to the Spam calendar, and then delete the Calendar entirely. This method does not inform spammers that an event has been declined and does not verify an iCloud account’s validity.
