We have had 7 fake appointments scheduled this week. The names and emails seem legit. But when we call the customer for the appointment, either the phone number doesn’t work or the person we are calling is adamant that they didn’t schedule with us. Is anyone else having issues?
HI
I’ll leave this thread open in case anyone else has seen this!
I did reach out. They said there’s no way to prevent fake appointments from being set. We can only block those people after the fact. I have a friend who uses Calendly who is having the same issue. And there’s a whole thread on Reddit about it. It’s beyond frustrating. We can’t afford to have our calendar blocked by fake appointments. All three appointments we had on the books today were fake.
Hi
I do know some features are getting pushed out soon to help alleviate some spammers/bad actors from booking. I’ll update the community once we have some more information.
You can find it here. If you google “calendly fake appointments” there are tons of threads about it everywhere. We’re probably going back to our old system. We can’t afford to have our calendar blocked by fake appointments.
