Re: [iPad] Calendar spam

Hi Jim.

As you have an interest in earthquakes, I thought I might update from here. The quake for us in Christchurch felt like a 5, but surprisingly it went on for about a minute. No big jolts, just rolling and shaking. To hear it was large, about 130km north from here that explains it. Wellington CBD has been locked down, and while Welly is more then twice as far as from here, there have been large quakes in the north of the South Island, so that must be why they have had damage. Im not aware of any issues here, although all schools are closed for today (Monday) Its now 7-25am.

You might be interested in more detail from stuff.co.nz  and newshub.co.nz 

Sadly there are casualties. I think two in Kaikoura, I think that was a homestead that collapsed. One in My Lyford which is in the mountains, and I think a quake induced heart attack in ChCh.

Cheers

Tony
Christchurch, NZ

Subject: [iPad] Calendar spam

 
I have never seen or even heard of this before.
While reading about the recent New Zealand earthquake on my iPad, I suddenly got a notification of a calendar event for tomorrow.

As I have a medical appointment tomorrow, I have looked at the date on the calendar recently, so I KNOW this was not there until just now.

It seems to be a commercial spam, and I have deleted it without doing anything else with it.

I am using Fantastical, not Apple Calendar, if that makes any difference.
Has anyone heard of an exploit of this sort before?
