Unauthorised Webinar Invites and Lack of Unsubscribe Option

MikeRF

I am writing to express my frustration regarding unauthorised webinar invitations I have been receiving.

  1. Unsolicited Invitations: I am being invited to webinars and meetings I did not sign up for. These invitations come from users who have added my email address without my consent.
  2. No Unsubscribe Option: The invitations lack an unsubscribe link, preventing me from removing myself from their mailing list. This raises privacy concerns and violates standard data protection practices.

Steps I have already taken:

  • Verified that I did not sign up for these webinars.
  • Attempted to find an unsubscribe or opt-out option but found none.

What I need to happen immediately:

  • Remove me from this particular user's invitation list to ensure I no longer receive further communications from them.
  • Implement measures to prevent my email address from being added to any Zoom webinars, meetings, or invitations in the future without my explicit permission.

I have not included any personal or identifiable information in line with your community guidelines. I trust that Zoom will take privacy concerns seriously and address this issue promptly.

I am having the exact same issue. I did not even have a Zoom account on this email, but have signed up just to see if there are account options to lock out the spammer. But there don't seem to be. I've gotten 6 spam invites from this guy in the last two weeks. It's ridiculous there is no option to prevent this or a very obvious unsubscribe/block inviter option when other webinar companies do offer it.

Hello community members,

I'm sorry for the late response and the inconvenience you experienced.

Please submit a report to Zoom Trust & Safety for further assistance.

Have you heard of Zoom AI Companion?

What kind of answer is that from Zoom

We are spamed and we have to then apply to Zoom for relief

Why doesn't the invite include an unsubscribe button or a spam button?

Same issue

Reporting to Trust & Safety is a farce

I cannot get a "code" to submit after several retries

Why doesn't Zoom include an "unsubscribe" button or a "spam" button?

Is there a better solution than filling out the Trust & Safety form. That just puts more work on those of us who have been spammed. It's almost like a double punishment.

Can you please provide an update on how this will be handled in the future?
