How to remove warning notifications for various fake problems on MacBook Pro?

Hey there!

These are often website notifications that are attempting to trick a user to click them. To disable these, choose Safari > Preferences > Websites, then scroll down and choose Notifications. Remove all sites shown.

"Suspect a virus: I've got a pop up sliding up from the top right side of screen, displaying the system prefs icon, warning for various fake problems. Message in correct French, no typos. This happens every 5-10 mins or so. They slide off screen after a few seconds , just the time to make a screen shot. -- How do I eradicate this? -- (macOS Big Sur 11.7.10)"

Thank you for the screenshot.

Troubleshooting Account Info Message:

That is a scam. Apple wouldn't send you an a ransom-sounding eMail or SMS text message. So, what seems to have occurred here is a scam..

I. Report this Message:

So, report phone call's and messages info to Apple and others (such as your government). Use my User: Using the Photos App to Report Scams - User Tip

and...

II. Secure your Info:

A. Verify your Devices:

Verify that all devices are logged in to your account, by using this link: Check your Apple ID Device List to See where you're Signed in - Apple Support
