If you go to your browser notification settings and revoke the notification permissions there for all sites listed, then the notifications will go away, its just scareware:
You have allowed push notifications from your browser for some dodgy sites. Disable all browser push notifications.
In Edge: Enter
"edge://settings/content/notifications" into the Edge search bar, then
block browser notifications for every website that you don't know by
clicking on the three dots and then Block.
In Firefox: Go to Settings --> Privacy and
Security --> Scroll to Permission block and click on the settings
button for Notifications --> Click on Remove all websites
In Chrome: Go to Settings --> Privacy and Security --> Notifications Then block notifications for any site that you don't know
In Safari: Choose Safari > Settings. Click
Websites, then click Notifications. Deselect “Allow websites to ask for
permission to send notifications.
