Help, I'm lowkey scared... The first pictures are from before today. I Googled what to do and changed my Google Calendar settings from 'those I know' to 'only if I accept.' I also made it so Google can't auto add things. I deleted all of them and it was okay for a while, then this new one came up literally just a while ago. I deleted all my spam emails and I have no Hotmail account :(( I'm scared this account has everything on it. The first pictures have 'You have been hacked' as an event for every single day. The second has 'your information will be stolen in 6 days, you have been hacked.'
