Windows 10: Getting spam reminded event in Windows notification center everyday

Hi, recently I'm getting some Russian spam (about some online making money) even in my windows notification center. It asks me to snooze or dismiss. When I click on that it opens my calendar I think (I don't remember well, didn't pay attention) and when I go in Windows calendar I don't see that event anywhere. I'm not home at my PC besides weekends & my wife is using my PC and she told me that this event pops up everyday. However, I noticed this spam even in my Google calendar as well and it was there in calendar. I deleted it and all the upcoming events and also changed event settings there from "automatically add events" to "no, only show invitations to which I have responded". Note, I have two accounts in my windows mail attached (both google and outlook). I checked outlook calendar, maybe that even was there too like it was on gmail, but surprisingly it wasn't there. So I have no idea from where this reminder appears everyday in windows notification center. Can anyone help me or advise me what to do? Thank you in advance.

Lumia 950 not showing calendar notifications or chiming reminders

My windows build: 10586.29, my calendar is 17.6515.64022.0.

For some time now, I haven’t been getting calendar notifications of any sort. No sounds, no notification center events, nothing.

Not sure when this started, but I do remember it used to work some time ago.

It doesn’t seem to matter whether calendar events are created online in office365 or in the phone's local calendar. I’ve tried different reminders, using the default suggestions in the app and custom ones in outlook – no difference either.

The odd thing is that the calendar app isn’t listed in the notification panel in the phone’s settings, whereas outlook mail etc. is. And I DO get mail notifications in the notification center, just as other notifications from other apps too. Is that part
of my problem?

thanks for any help in advance!
