Alert-cleaner.club

Posted: March 31, 2021

Alert-cleaner.club is a website involved in attacks that are known as the 'Calendar' Virus collectively, which targets iOS devices exclusively. These attacks are not threatening at first, but if the user falls for their nefarious tactics, they may end up in a lot of trouble. Typically, iOS users will see the Alert-cleaner.club in their device's default Calendar application - Alert-cleaner.club will fill it with fake events and notifications telling the users that their devices may be infected by threatening viruses. The fake event/notification also provides a 'solution' – following a link, which is meant to help fix the problem.

However, the links hosted on Alert-cleaner.club are not a reliable source of information about active virus infections or potential fixes certainly. Instead, users will be taken to a fake website, which tries to sell them fake products and services that may cost hundreds of dollars. In some cases, users also might be taken to online tactics, which also end up costing money. Needless to say, any content related to Alert-cleaner.club should be ignored entirely.

If you are seeing the Alert-cleaner.club notifications in your iOS Calendar application, then your device is affected by the 'Calendar' Virus. To fix it, you need to go to your iOS device settings -> Subscribed Calendars and remove any unknown entries.
