messages regarding a virus on my calendar

my calendar on my iPhone keeps spamming messages regarding a virus on my iPhone. It’s saying messages like: “viruses alert. Check protection now” or “you are exposed online.” I don’t know if it’s legit or a scam.

That is a Rogue Calendar account. Go to Settings-->>Passwords & Accounts and under Accounts see if an unknown calendar account is listed. If it is then tap on it and then Delete account.


Note that it is not a virus. It is something that got added to your calendar because you may have accepted an offer from a pop-up  on a website unknowingly. Please be careful out there,


Good Luck.
