Wondering where that upcoming meeting with 'Cheap Viagra' came from? Spammers beat Gmail filters by abusing Google Calendar, Forms, Photos, Analytics...

Re: Not surprised

About 5 years ago I wss working with a group of people who used Google calendar for everything, the set me up a gmail account so that I could be in the loop.

After a week I noticed advertising spam related to the calendar content coming to my inbox, I assume everything on their calendar is transparent to Google and used to improve your experience ™. Needless to say I declined syncing with my other emails.
