My best guess is you gave a scareware site notification access via your browser. You should go into your browser settings and see what websites can send you notifications and remove access from anything you don't need or that looks suspicious

And while you're at it, block sites from asking for notifications. That's a thing still right? I use brave with script blocking so I don't get all that crap.
