Virus notifications occurring

I began receiving Calendar notifications yesterday regarding a virus on my phone with instructions to go to links provided. I have not opened any of the links. Is this sort of thing legitimate?

No. Do not respond. It is just adware

In Calendar app, tap on Calendars and uncheck the ones you don’t recognise .

Then  Settings > Calendar > Accounts > Subscribed Calendars, look for the problem calendar and delete it.

When a website asks to send you notifications, special offers etc always say NO.
