You may  have adware/malware installed. Try downloading this program which was written by Thomas R, a long time poster. The program will search for malware/adware. The program will do the work for you which makes it easy. It may be necessary to run more than one scan. After running the scans, restart the computer.


Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for Mac      10.10 and later.       


Web site for download   https://www.malwarebytes.com


Go to Safari Preferences/Extensions, uninstall any you don't recognize, and then turn all extensions off. Test. If okay, turn the extensions on one by one until you figure out what extension is causing the problem.


Safari/Preferences/General - see what the Home Page is set to. If something you don't recognize, see if you can replace it with something you want.


 Safari menu/Clear History.


 System Preferences and remove any Profiles you see.
