Being added to webinars without permission

I'm being added to webinars i didn't sign up for by people i don't know.

I don't know how they got my information but i got zoom meeting confirmations and reminders for webinars that I didn't sign up for.

And the organizer is obviously very shady. They use throwaway email addresses as their reply-to email adds. 

 

It's messing up my calendar cos these webinars are automatically added to my calendar.

Isn't this a privacy and personal data violation? How can I stop this?

I’m having the same problem and Zoom support isn’t helping me stop the spamming.

Dear Zoom - Add the Report button to all Webinar Invites. This will make the process easier to report to the appropriate people and it will reduce the number of Spammers using the Zoom Platform. Allowing this webinar spamming to continue is reducing the reputation Zoom has developed as the best Webinar and meeting platform on the market.

Dear Zoom - add the Report button to all Webinar messaging. This will help reduce the spammers using the Zoom platform.
